Stop the foreign posts!

Question

It's pretty annoying when someone posts something in Russian or another language than English, because I don't understand it others don't understand it,
yes there are people who understand it, but I just want to help and it's frustrating if I can't.
or maybe we'd be interested too.
Please if you can't write good English ask someone to translate it for you. This is a public forum, not a private chat room. Most of us aren't native speakers and we still try.

Sorry if this offended you.
Thank you.

Answer 1

Google translate isn't perfect, sure
But as long as I can use it to translate their Russian or other languages posts, I'm sure they can do the same and post the question in English
As Hatsy Rei said, it's not forbidden in SoloLearn but it's still something nice to do as it lets the majority understand the post meaning ^^"

Answer 2

FYI, posts and threads in foreign languages are not against the Content Creation Guidelines, and are allowed by SoloLearn.

Answer 3

@ M.A.T.F at least one person read it, that is something already

Answer 4

@shobbit I find it rather strange that they go through the tutorials which are in ENGLISH, and the whole app is in English, but they can't post a simple question in English ...

Answer 5

yeah you are right but that is not always possible.

Answer 6

but it is my loss because I'm interested in what they're asking, that's the whole point, on the other points I'm not contradicting you, I wouldn't want to forbid anyone to use their own language, but some people don't even try, my whole life I've been in contact with people who aren't good in one or another language and I know the difference between someone trying and someone not trying at all

Answer 7

nevertheless thank you for participating in this conversation

Answer 8

its not always possible to have a translator, and to be frank google translator still sucks.
if someone ask a question in their own language and get the answer what's wrong in it.

Answer 9

@shobbit it's not wrong I just mean that they could at least write in the comments what the essence of the question is in English, I mean those who answer maybe know some more English

Answer 10

there is a difference between reading english and describing something using english.
and what i want to say is that it depends on the person who is asking question.if they are comfortable in their own language let them use that. its better if they use english but if they are not using it's not y/our loss.
