Frankly, if the synth doesn't support foreign languages (and I suspect the version of Eloquence in the Sense products is English only), I doubt it ultimately makes much sense to support foreign languages. The Blazie products did not unless you purchased additional software with them enabled.
AS I keep saying here, remember that we're essentially dealing with a PDA. I'd rather that some of the outstanding bugs be squashed rather than GW Micro and HIMS engaging in rampant featuritis!

Students in the United States are required to take foreign languages in high school, and college. Many go on to advanced study of a foreign language, and many others were born in other countries. Blazie Engineering developed foreign language support for over 10 languages, which increased Braille 'n Speak, and Braille Lite use. Likewise, Freedom Scientific has support for foreign languages. I would like to strongly suggest that foreign languages be supported in the braille sense product. This would m-power the user of the Sense to pursue, or continue to develop their foreign language skills. I, for one, would love to see support for Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian. Other languages could include German, Russian, Ucranian, Polish, Japonese, and so on.
