8 Hi,
9 This is OT:
10
11 I am sure I don't have the best English and I do a lot of faults. But in
12 Germany *everybody* believes to speak English. Pleas correct things like
13 packet / package. Bad translation can cause a lot of problems. (Also one
14 can easily see if some news is only translated from English or if the
15 network has a man down wherever.) Porsche for example told their
16 employees not to use English for their work. Person A translated
17 something from German into English and person B had to do it vis versa
18 and half of the content was lost somewhere on the way.
