That some people from one part of Britain, have difficulty understanding
some people from
another part of Britain is true, though only in extreme cases. However,
they still speak
more or less the same language (though different pronunciations applies)
and certainly watch TV
in the same English and read the papers in the same English. Therefore this
is not a valid argument
as all in UK can understand proper English and don't need everything
translated in regional dialects.
I find it unhelpful to bring this argument in to discussion whether it is
essential that ICANN considers
the other principal languages.
