+<p>If you are a native English speaker, and you happen to speak
+another language(s), even if not fluently, you can still help the
+translation process.  Translators sometimes misunderstand English
+idioms and expressions, and as a result, they translate them
+incorrectly or in ways that are suboptimal and confusing.  These
+errors are trivial to discover for the native English speaker &mdash;
+if you are willing to assist in this particular kind of proof-reading,
+please contact the relevant translation team and work with them
+closely.</p>
