See my answer to your question at http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/2224134 I didn't know it was 'against the rules' to post in another language. I am surprised the AB site could accept another language, like Japanese and such. Anyway, I spend time coming and going on AB because there is often an URL on here that someone posted and I want to check them out. So that's all I did when I saw that post in Spanish; just went to a translating webpage. AB *IS* for learning (originally), I read. I'm glad I know it is not acceptable to post in another language now; I will be sure and not do that. Would y'all please go to http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/589156 and tell me why *IT* was DR'd? I thought it was a good, fun, question but someone had the opposite reaction, apparently. You'll see all my rants and raves about it when you get there. :) Thanks for your help with this.

Maybe they just aren't up to speed on other languages and thought you were just smashing the keyboard....

It's because this is an English site and it's considered against the rules to post in another language.

Probably because this is an English-speaking site, and it is somewhat rude to post in another language. Most here cannot understand it. That is why it is rude. I did not DR, but I can see why. I would, were I the type, do the same thing to chatspeak or L33t
