Discussion about life, phoenix-network's 'water cooler'

Although many of the languages are written using the English alphabet, there are still may others that use a totally different character.

Good if google can translate, but google translator is also limited at this time.

Consider these written languages: Arabic, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Russian.

I know German very well (as I live in Germany =D). But I still see no point in international forums.

The comunity will frow bigger as the language won't be a barrier for part of the fellas that feel insecure in their English Smile.

when we think about the number of languages, it is not a good idea to use our main languages at forum...

And if there was a section for Turkish, eh? It's not that bad. If there were more active members from different countries ...

Yes, but you'd have to have a moderator for each language. As most people here speak English well enough, I still don't see any point in localization.
