Help~! HU is in Portugese~~

[Grammy80]

A beautiful language to be sure...but every time I open HU, it is in Portuguese and I have to translate? Anyone else....or is it something I've done? Wouldn't that be a surprise? 😩😖😜

[MrsNails]

Hi GrammyGo into settings - you must have selected Portuguese by mistake 😉

Hi GrammyGo into settings - you must have selected Portuguese by mistake 😉

Thanks, Mrs. Nailso, I've been there and it wasn't checked....but I'll be heading back and if I cannot correct it....I'll be getting in touch with one of those young folks....who take care of these things blindfolded. 😎💖

[Grammy80 in reply to Grammy80]

PS....HU is the ONLY webpage that seems affected. As you can see, it picks and chooses...some of the information...

PMR Symptoms (511)

All things PMRGCAuk (453)

You have gone into the settings for HU I assume? Not your computer settings. You will find it under "More". Options are English, Spanish, Portuguese!

[Grammy80 in reply to HeronNS]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Thanks so much, I had not gone into HU settings. Didn't even know about them. That solved the issue~! and explained why no other sites were affected. I shall have pleasant dreams...thank you again.💖 You tool .

Olè 🤣😂

[Grammy80 in reply to Hidden]

💃🏻 Ole~!

[HeronNS in reply to Grammy80]

Odd that it seemed to change all by itself though, isn't it? I was not aware of the language options until now myself. Funny, the Canadian in me came out as I initially thought - where is the French?!

[Grammy80 in reply to HeronNS]

Parle Vous Portuguese?🤭🤭

[HeronNS in reply to Grammy80]

One of the languages I play around at learning on Duolingo is Portuguese. i am not good at languages, certainly not at speaking, but I do like to learn, and at the moment I have French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese on the go. I like it, because of the similarities and the differences, and sometimes I get them muddled! I have tried a couple of others, Swahili and Polish, and abandoned them both very quickly. Hebrew was a non-starter because they did not teach the script. I was put on to this by a friend who was teaching herself Esperanto. That's how I started, but in a few weeks decided it would be more productive to learn a language which is actually used, and switched over to Spanish. Nao falo portugues. (Sorry, don't know how to find the accents on my keyboard.)

Sorry i should not laugh, but i just can not picture you as Mrs Nailo !😜

[MrsNails]

You can try logging off & back in again - always a good start in my book! What a performance, eh?

Good Night - heading to bed now xx

[Hidden in reply to MrsNails]

Wish that worked with our afflictions too 🟥 press to reboot 🤣

[SheffieldJane]

Meu Deus! 💖

[Grammy80]

Done playing with this, sleep tight. Sometimes it is English, sometimes not....tomorrow is another day....💖 10-4

[Manchesterlady]

Mine is in Spanish, don’t know how it happened,

[Grammy80 in reply to Manchesterlady]

I sure don't know how mine happened either, but I followed Heron's advice, and it worked. When you open HU in the upper right corner by your avatar, you will see MORE. Click on that and open settings. When you scroll down, you will see a choice of languages....somehow, my English was not selected. I selected it and restarted my computer. Voila! Oh, I think that is French....let's not complicate things. Good Luck! 💖

[Manchesterlady in reply to Grammy80]

Got it , would never had found it . Thank you

[SheffieldJane]

Viva! Grammy80 how very odd.

[Grammy80 in reply to SheffieldJane]

Yes, who knew~! I'd never even opened the settings before....I almost put in British English but it wasn't an option.💖 I figured I could brush up on the King's English.

[Hidden in reply to Grammy80]

😂 quite so

[123-go]

Bri'ish Inglish! Cor blimey mate! Sorry it all went to pot. No wonder you were miffed. Pleased it's all tickety boo now. Ave a cuppa and put your plates of meat up.

See ya. 😉

[Constance13 in reply to 123-go]

😂😂 Are you a cockney?

[Hidden in reply to Constance13]

I’m trying to change mine to The Kings English….. how times have changed, and not all for the better….Yours sincerely

[HeronNS in reply to Hidden]

🤣

[123-go in reply to Constance13]

I can be! As one born and bred in the not so leafy lanes of North London I admit to dropping my aitches from time to time but never in front of the Queen 😀.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to 123-go]

Wot - never?

[123-go in reply to PMRpro]

'ardly ever.

[Hidden in reply to 123-go]

Now MY sites switched to cockney!😄

[123-go in reply to Hidden]

Good, innit?

[Constance13 in reply to Hidden]

😂😂😂

[Grammy80 in reply to 123-go]

'plates of meat up'?? Tever you say, Guv'nor~! 😃

[DorsetLady PMRGCAuk volunteer]

HU has some overnight naughty fairies🧚‍♀️🧚🧚‍♂️ at time….a couple of weeks ago it altered one of my notifications settings…….wasn’t me guv, honest!

So if anything goes wrong, check your settings first…..

Hasta la vista, baby

[PMRpro Ambassador]

I have google set for English - and it repeatedly appears in Italian. I check the setting (as they tell me to) and it is STILL set for English. I click on it again and save the settings and off we go for another few weeks.

Technology is great - until it isn't ...

[Constance13 in reply to PMRpro]

Same in Germany! Too often. Last week it was 3 times.🤨

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Constance13]

I could cope with German!

[Constance13 in reply to PMRpro]

So can I, of course, after all these years, but nevertheless it annoys me.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Constance13]

Oh yes - the language isn't very ladylike

[Sharitone in reply to PMRpro]

Was soll denn das bedeuten?

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to Sharitone]

I might get banned if I said ...

[HeronNS in reply to PMRpro]

I bet the IA which controls so much of the internet now sees where you live and thinks it knows better than you and changes your language setting whenever there's some sort of automatic update. Because of my actual name I encounter the annoyance of being referred to as M. (monsieur) because my first name could be the French for John and my married last name, although originating in south of England, is confused by those not in the know for a French name. As it's spam and junk snail mail which does that I delete or recycle and move on. Sometimes a website asks me if I want to have the French translation, or to change my language to French. At least it doesn't do it automatically! Computers are idiot savants.

[PMRpro Ambassador in reply to HeronNS]

I get asked if I want stuff translated - and I must say I do like the Italian newspapers being translated!!! And I can read all my Italian friends' friends comments on FB. But if they were REALLY clever they'd know that where I live is a German speaking region! Mind you - it is relatively recent that they get the place right - it's been places around Bozen until now and that's 70km away.
