The only languages they are printed in is English and Spanish -- are you
aware of other languages?


Don't know about those specific forms, but the backside of my utility
bills have help information in no less than five languages besides
english. The last time I was at my local DMV the signs were in about
as many languages and IIRC, you could take the driving test in about
a dozen different languages.

As for language on the ATM's, they keep 'redesigning' the layout.
Every couple months you have to pause and search for the appropriate
button for your language choice because they keep moving the menu
selections around 'to help serve you better'. So far in my area it's
only two choices. Considering the number of languages spoken around
here, it won't be long before it's more.

Actually, you have to pause and search for every button choice
because they keep moving them around. So it's not just the language
button that's a problem on the ATM's.
