Subject:ESL & vice versa From:Suzanne Lee <suzanne -at- AUTOSIM -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 22 Mar 1995 13:43:08 -0700
This is for anyone who works with translation/international issues:
My (software) company is creating several tests/exercises to screen
potential distributors overseas, mostly in Europe and Asia. Our software
and all manuals are in English, but I assume most of these people use
English as a second language. So here's the question:
Will they know the phrase "vice versa?" If not, what is a not-too-wordy
replacement phrase that implies the same thing?
TIA
Suzanne
