Dear people who know languages besides English - Cancambo - 2010-12-29

I'm a bit curious what non-English websites you visit, and whether or not you tend to visit more English websites or websites of another language.


Dear people who know languages besides English - aslemn - 2010-12-29

Huh, usually news websites, i use to write and publicize reviews, criticism about some novels, books, movies, art resource website, marketing ones...
I visit more english websites than the others in my mother language, or the other languages i can understand.

I tend to visit mroe english than spanish websites, even if the site has multiple language options, I choose the english one.

Dear people who know languages besides English - aslemn - 2010-12-29

Yea, altough websites have multiple language choices, i'm too much used to english that i prefer it agains't my mother language.
You know, i'm much more used to it, although i use my mother language so much frequently.


Dear people who know languages besides English - yoosergio - 2010-12-29

I rarely visit websites in spanish...

Dear people who know languages besides English - Jedward - 2010-12-29

I'm am also quite curious about things like this. Also sites countries tend to use that are similar to what we use, but a different company. An example would be China and Google. I, as many others do, consider Google to be the best search engine, and yet it has very few Chinese users.


Dear people who know languages besides English - Fiel - 2010-12-30

That's because everyone in China uses Baidu. Google is filled with imperialistic Americans trying to take over China.


Dear people who know languages besides English - Kevo - 2010-12-30

I stopped visiting non-English sites a long time ago. If I gotta search something in Chinese, I'll use Baidu as a backup to Google although I'm having trouble even getting Chinese to type out atm Sad

There are two Thai websites I usually visit, TMS board and a soccer league board. Fail.in.th and drama-addict.com once a couple of days.


Dear people who know languages besides English - MetaSeraphim - 2010-12-30

I really only visit English sites.


Dear people who know languages besides English - Link - 2010-12-30

I hardly EVER visit non-English sites, but the ones I do visit that are Japanese would be :

http://maplestory.nexon.co.jp
http://maplesonar.com/wiki/
http://hangame.co.jp
http://mixi.jp
http://nicovideo.jp


Other English websites have Japanese people I can talk to in their own tongue, so I don't have to stray too far to find people to converse with.

I speak Mandarin but...

If I could speak I different language, I would visit DnF. The domain of male fighters..............
And I would play a male fighter while I was there.....

Dear people who know languages besides English - octopusprime - 2010-12-30

None i guess. News sometimes but rarely. I mostly use it IRL or sometimes in games.

This.

Although I speak 4 languages, I only visit websites in Dutch and English.

I only ever go to French or German websites, when I absolutely have to because of their specific information (tech guides, etc).


Dear people who know languages besides English - Kalovale - 2010-12-30

I absolutely abhor searching on the internet for something local, enough to punch whoever requested such help. Any website whose company isn't a big shot internationally sucks massive balls on a Holywood Chihuahua. Buying cement, rooftops, bicycles, looking for locations, contact information, prices of items, even banking; everything seems to be perfectly designed to drive me insane.
