Dear local guides,
I would like to know what language to use when I write a review: the native language or English. Which is the best option to be able to help people more efficiently?
Thank you.

SolutionWho do you think is most likely to read your review, tailor it to your audience.

Considering the audience, the most appropriate language would be Romanian. As far as I am concerned, I would also like to help foreigners that are to come to my country.
Thanks for your help.

It has been suggested to the Google team to add auto translation to reviews so that everyone can read all reviews.

Let's wait until this feature is implemented. Thanks for your answer. Have a good day.

As you are aware Google is providing translations from/to any languages there is no barrier for languages however usage of a common language may help the reader to go through what the writer exactly mean

I think both languages, but if you use english on your colaborations maybe you will help more people. Native language only helps local people.

i addressed this concern in a more recent discussion. I think the problem is that the reviews are all bunched together regardless of the language they are written in. I think it would be necessary for the reader to be able to choose which language he wishes to read reviews in. I don't think this is currently possible.

I think that's a great idea! As long as we, or someone is overviewing the translation. Google translate is good, but it does make mistakes, sometimes

So, should both reviews be written one after the other in the same post? Or is there a way to write two separate posts?
