That is good to know. I usually assume pharmacists will speak English, almost anywhere in the world, due to the high level of education required for the job. I don't know (and can't find - I just looked) the statistics, but the proportion of university graduates in the world that speak English to at least a modest standard is very high. _______________________________________________ Wikimania-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimania-l
