I have seen a high amount of things in this forum that should not be here so I decided to create this guide.
Here you should create threads for languages that are not listed in the menu at the end of this page. If your language is not listed there then your language should be in a thread in this forum. Check through the pages of this forum to see. If it is not there create a thread for your language. These threads are used to discuss scratch in different languages.

But read this guide before creating a thread:

What should I NOT post here?
1. Duplicate topics
If there is already a thread for your language do not post another. Looking through this forum I have found 9 discussions for the Irish language. Post in a thread that is already there if there is one already there. Even if the thread is five years old still use that one. Necroposting is ok in this forum. It is best to keep the conversation all in one place.

2. A language you made up
You might have made up your own language with your friend. Unfortunately, this is not a place to discuss a language you made up. It is for the convenience of non-English speakers. Please be respectful to them.

3. Spam
Spam does not go in any forum. Do not advertise your projects or blockspam. This forum is for the convenience of non-English speakers. Please be respectful to them.

4. Any language that already has its own forum
Go to the end of this page: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/ . There is a list of languages that already have their own forum topic. If your language has its own forum use that.

5. Extinct languages
Please do not create a thread for an extinct language such as Latin. It will get closed down by a moderator

6. Fictional languages
Please do not create a thread for a fictional language such as Klingon. It will get closed down by a moderator.

7. Joke languages
You can set the language on the Scratch website to Edible Scratch and Meow. But these are just joke languages so please do not create a thread for them in this forum

8. English
Again, this forum for non-English speaking people. There is already a forum for the English language. (I know, this guide is in English )

9. Computer languages
No HTML, CSS, PHP or any of that. Also no wingdings.

10. Learn a language threads
If you want to learn a language, I suggest Duolingo.

So, if your language is breaking the rules above do not create a new thread for it. If it has passed the guidelines above it is probably safe to create a thread for it.

Thanks for reading!
