Thread: If English is not your first language

  1. #1

    Arrow If English is not your first language

    Then please get someone who is somewhat more fluent to help you with your auction descriptions.

    Otherwise, we may not have a clue what it is you're actually trying to sell.

    Like this.

    Sometimes, even when you do write a description, it may not be quite enough. Like here.


    And no, I'm not picking on this guy, I'm making a serious point.

    The problem is that each of us uses terminology each day which is common place to, without alot of thought that other people may not understand what we are on about.

    When I ask my brother for advice about computers he starts talking gibberish. In my job (medical staffing) we have lots of terminology which is understood by people within the environment, but not outside.
