Well, then you just have to learn every language...


I just want to say that a newsgroup that allows you to post in any
language is waaaay c00l. Think about it.


I can only see advantages:

* you can get help even if you don't know English,

* it gives you a chance to exercise your once learnt language which
  you never use,

* you can have a go trying to understand some new language.
