The BrailleNote from HumanWare supports 4 foreign languages: Spanish,
German, Italian and French.
But if you have the Braille Snese Plus, couldn't you turn off the speech and
write foreign languages using 8 dot computer braille?

Subject: [GWN] Improvement: support for foreign languages
Foreign languages.
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.

If an infinite number of rednecks riding in an infinite number of pickup
trucks fire an infinite number of shotgun rounds at an infinite number of
highway signs, they will eventually produce all the world's great literary
works in Braille.
