The language dropdown design is nor very useful in its current form. The Google Symbol we like but there is no association with a language change. The text wihtin is shown in any language of whatever the browser's setup is currently. People who are using the website may not understand this language but want to change the language so they can understand the website's content and therefore need to find the button or dropdown by an appropriate "Language Change" symbol.
Within the dropdown, the language is shown in this browser language mentioned above. But the user mainly wants to change the language because it cannot understand what's displayed. So every language text should be displayed in the language of it's origin e.g. Deutsch instead of German or Руски instead of Russian or whatever language the browser's favorite currently is. Is there any possibility for webmaster's, to change the appearence of this dropdown to whatever the website's need? Might be country flags could be the appropriate method. Some websites are designed to rich people in countries around and therefore do not need to be translated in every other language of the world. So there it would be better to have only two, three flags wihch changes the language instantly. I'd love to hear from other people what they think to this theme. fanThomas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "General" group.
