If you interpret that posting differently, and you haven't said whether you do, then that's our point of difference. Perhaps I misread the OP, in which case there's nothing to discuss and everything's fine and dandy. > This list has for at > least the past eight years been multilingual. Kind of... it's an English language list to which posts are sometimes made in other languages. When that happens, generally one of the poster's fellow nationals gently reminds them that it's an English language list, and sometimes translates their questions so others can try to help. Sometimes not. It's informal, as we both know. But to call it multilingual is at best an exaggeration. > It is your call to make > it English-only that is new. I have no idea why you're trying to misrepresent what I was saying. It's starting to feel mildly bizarre. Peter.
