That's Spanish. Almost all posts on BEE-L are in English but BEE-L is an international list with members for whom English is not a mother tongue. Many are fluent in a number of languages and write in English but others read English well, but find writing English difficult. They have insights we may not find in English publications or hear otherwise and we welcome their input sent any way they are best able to submit it.
If you have the Google Translate extension installed in your browser, it will automatically detect a non-English page or part page and offer to translate. It automatically offered to translate a recent Spanish post when I was reading thorough the posts in the archives. https://community.lsoft.com/scripts/wa-LSOFTDONATIONS.exe?A2=BEE-L;a3df5a21.2103&S=
There is also a extension--ImTranslator-- for Chrome, Edge and Firefox that translates snippets of a page if you select the text you want translated. https://about.imtranslator.net/add-ons/chrome-extension/ (The Chrome extension works on Edge).
We can also cut and paste messages into Google Translate (GT) https://translate.google.com It helps if we know at last a little of the second language to check the translation, but, although GT was recently disparaged here, fact is that it has improved greatly in recent months and it does a good enough job for most purposes. I have seen 100% accuracy in letters I have tested recently but I expect there may be issues with jargon and technical words.
If we care to reply in a language we don't know at all, we can even paste an English reply into GT and reply in the other language. (It is probably wise to add a tag explain you used the translator in case it mistranslated and said said something stupid).
