How to write in your mother language, but preview in English
Since both starting a group discussion and participating in it must be in English, I made this tutorial to help users from other countries that find it difficult to write in English.
By the way, this tutorial was suggested by FredSWUG.

Step 1: Visit Chrome Web Store
Go to this link, then click "Add to Chrome"
Now, click "Add Extension"
I chose Google Translate because it has 53 languages, surpassing all the other add-on translators.
If you use another browser, open its "Add-ons" store, then add the translator you like.
These are the most popular browsers' "Add-ons" stores:
- Internet Explorer (Link to tutorial)
- Mozilla Firefox (Link to store)
- Opera (Link to store)
- Safari (Link to store)

Step 2: Translate your text
Now I'll make a new discussion, but in my mother language which is Arabic.
Write the text, select it, click on one of the "translate" buttons, copy the translated text, then paste it in GrabCAD.
Simple, isn't it?

Step 3: Reading English text
This is for non-English users to help them read others' discussions.
Most discussions here are completely in English, so to ease the process of translation, you can translate the whole page at once.
As you can see, the page has been completely translated into French.
You can change the language into any of the 53 other ones from "Translated to".
