This forum is provided to post questions about Excel in different languages than English.

Please understand that there isn't ANY guarantee that there is a person who can answer your question in your own language, but do post anyway, maybe there is !

Thanks for your post Sal.
Yea, Japanese is my main language.

Perhaps a list of languages covered with speakers of the language next to it could be added as a sticky?

I would agree. It sounds very handy for someone has a question.

And one more thing.

I have a suggestion that runs the "Questions in Other Languages Forum" more effectively.
As far as I know, there are many Japanese Excel users who have question. But they tend to close their browser if the information is written in English.
So I think that we should've a help document for Registration written in each languages so that non English native visitors can easyly be a members of MrExcel.com.

How do you think, all?

Masaru-san,

Did you send a PM with your idea to Suat or Tracy?

Hi Greg,

Not yet. It was off the top of my head.
I'll be writing about this tracy.

Hi Colo!

One thing we could try as a simple add-on to your suggestion would be to list the each language--in that language--under the forum name on the index page.

So instead of 'Spanish' it would be 'Español,' 'French' would be 'Français' and so on. Of course, I would need some help/input from others as to the correct phrase and spelling. I'm also not sure if Japanese characters would display correctly but I figure it's worth a try.

Well, let me weigh in with German - Deutsch.

 

[Sal Paradise]

Japanese characters do display correctly:
日本語

Just use those. Copy-paste should be fine.
