Puedes hacer la pregunta en español. no hay ningun problema. O si prefieres, puedes utilizar las comunidades en español en la liga provista anteriormente.

You are absolutely correct. We often see Chinese, French, etc. posts. The problem is that these foreign language posts may not get read or responded to as frequently or as completely as posts in the Community's language. When I post a question I do not do so in the Spanish speaking ASC because I want as many eyes as possible reading my issue and responding with possible solutions.

While that is true, there are enough of us that speak spanish to address the questions here. This however does not mean there isn't benefit to having a full community in the prefered language to address the question, as such, I did suggest they use the Spanish forums as well.

As for myself, I do not speak or read Spanish and I bypass any questions in that language precisely because the translators are often quite inaccurate and/or do not know how to translate technical/computer terms. Hence, I do not feel proficient enough to answer or get into a technical dialog which I feel would be a disservice to the OP.


I can do that with the German language because I am 100% proficient and can figure out the meaning or gist of the message simply by knowing both German and English and the different language structures etc.


So, I think that as long as there is a forum in whatever particular language, it is best to sugges to the OP to use that forum rather than both the OP and the respondent struggling along here.
