Language Options

At the language options it says Mexico...... why don't you write simply Spanish ?? The language name is Spanish and it is the language they talk in Mexico, Argentina, Chile, etc etc and obviously in Spain.<br /><br />Cheers

If you're referring to the language selection on the board, then it's just a default that we don't (can't!) change. Perhaps the reason behind it is that Mexican Spanish is different to Castilian Spanish (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_Spanish), as well as being spoken by more people than speak Castilian
