Inclusion and commonality
2 languages are common on this forum, ME Labs pic basic & pro, and english.
PICBASIC because the forum is about that and English, largely because it is an English company paying the bills, that is not to say anything bad about other languages, Machine or Human. Ioannis, wanted to be INCLUDED in this thread, but could not understand Portuguese, I am pretty sure he speaks Greek very well, and his English is pretty good too. PICDEV's English is actually pretty fair, and as Skimask pointed out other languages mystify many of us as our governments do not make the effort to teach the general population various languages, but to communicate, there has to be a sender and a receiver, which understand at least some of the information. This I believe was the point of the original comments to use English, I see lots of snippets of other languages used here and I get it that it is not intended for me to understand. To all of our English as a second language members, I appreciate the extraordinary effort it takes you to post in english, posting in english will get you the most help however, and will help all the others here. I use this forum as a classrom, I learn from everyone elses mistakes as well as my own. I think the greatest thing about this forum is we can help each other.
