on language for all -1 --- I have also witnessed, especially in the ICRC, the English-French writing, where something makes sense in French so it was written in similar way in English but it doesn't actually work in English so the message ends up being very confusing. I think messages should always be written by specialised people with strong language skills in the language the message is written because a minor slip could alter the entire meaning or sometimes even insult the target audience.
