Posting In Your Native Language Is Now Allowed

@Todd This is truly a great idea!

Being my native language is English it personally doesn't effect me. But if my native language where something else, admittedly I would certainly like the option to post in said language.

 

I'm really glad to see this happening, it will help non-US beers and places in the long run and will build up already great parts of the community in the int'l forums. The disparity in reviews due to language in Quebec alone is pretty incredible when you look at other places in Canada and Quebec beers that have been reviewed elsewhere. Glad to see it! Gracias/Merci/Thank you!

English "that is great news and can only help the beer people"

 

I like this alot. Now we will need a translate icon for the Intl Forums as listed from your post.

 

Excellent. I know a number of people in Quebec who have used Ratebeer to rate and review their beers, not because they like the site better, but because they could do it in French.

Now, any chance we get Provincial top beer lists? I realize that it may be difficult because of the way things have been set up, but the fact there is a top list for Wyoming but not for Ontario is unfortunate. Furthermore, because inter-provincial distribution tends to be very limited, the current list is almost useless to someone visiting, say, Nova Scotia when they may only find 2-3 of the beers on the list even available in the province.

Cheers!

 

Understood. I figure this is a bit of a chicken/egg scenario. Hopefully the new language allowances will see an uptick in ratings/reviews.

My thoughts would be to have individual lists for BC, Ontario and Quebec, and then regional ones for the Praries, Maritimes and territories.

And, I will spread the word.

Cheers.

 

Excellent! Or as my French half would say "Excellent!"

Bien fait les amis!

 

Finally, somewhere where my latin schooling can be of use! Haec lingua mortua est!

 

Ich kann einen online-Übersetzer finden, wenn nötig, danke schön! (I can find an online translator if needed).

 

The next step might be different language versions of Beeradvocate. Even english menues could be a problem for potential foreign users. Anyway огромное спасибо! (thanks a lot)

 

Is altavista still around?

 

But translating my beer reviews from Spanish to English was half the fun.

 

Very cool. It seems there is very little participation from the Japanese looking through local beer reviews while I'm in Japan. Hopefully that'll change!

 

Super!
Dzięki.
