Language Petition!

I have been in the war room for some time now, and I’ve struggled a bit engaging in content due to a language barrier. English is only my second language, and it sometimes takes me 10 minutes to translate a good value-oriented opinion. 


I think it would be great to see more post in different languages, so we can have a multicultural war room with endless possibilities! 


What do you think about this? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Me gusta pero mi espanol es equaldid tu ingles which I'm sure you could see with my poor spelling and grammar hahahaha. Also though I think this would be cool because I feel like each region has various slang and terms (Think U.S Vs U.K English) and I would love to learn various slang in other languages

Ahh I so wish I spoke Spanish. Took 2 years of it in HS and pretty much forgot everything I learned. I should've stuck with it. Would come in SUPER handy now... With that being said, this is an inclusive platform, and I'm sure you aren't alone! Post in spanish! Give us english only speakers a taste of our medicine and make us translate!

I could see the value of posting in other languages. On occasion I will hold a demo in Spanish, doesn't happen often but still, would like to practice my "business Spanish" as that's the only area of the language I really struggle.

I’d prefer to have 1 “lingua franca”. The best common language for us all is English. So I’d prefer to have all content to be in English.
