Subject: RE: BS: Minority languages
I wish the miraculous babelfish (push the Translate blue clicky below) would start providing translation facilities for a few more languages.

Also that more people whose native language isn't English would start using the facility in order to take part in the Mudcat.

Everyone needs a second language. It's one thing that native English speakers are often very unfairly deprived of. In the British Isles most people get abroad from time to time to places where they speak other languages, so something rubs off. US Americans should be really grateful that Spanish is now effectively becoming a secondary language for them in their own country, since most of them don't ever get abroad.
