Bilingual Translator Needed
© Copyright Frank D. Kanu 2000-2008
Doh!
Shouldn’t that be one the requirements to speak at least two languages?
Job postings are not only a source of fun for the reader but also give a good picture of education and economics… Lately it seems that more and more of those job descriptions are written by people who really need to press their behinds a bit longer on a school bench…
Maybe, just maybe, I got it wrong: Not every language counts when one speaks English… For example if one speaks English and Spanish that counts as one language: Spanglish. English and German makes bilingual. English and ancient Egyptian on the other hand must count for at least three or four languages; after all it is way harder to learn and is also more troublesome to find someone to speak with. I have heard that mummies do not really communicate that well…
Coincidently this comes at the same time I am reading more and more job descriptions which seem nothing more than copy and paste from TWO positions; and—of course—the job pays only for one position…

How many languages do you speak?
Should rambling count as one?
