Some people should not publish in English, in my view

I was kind enough to suggest how to get a Chinese research paper translated by non-experts in the field. Well, here is my additional advice: Do NOT go for such a route, if one cannot even provide the terminology of one's research topic.

Often, when I am in such a situation, that is, editing a paper with questionable terminology, I try to find a paper written by "a native speaker." In this case, none of the citations I could use are by "the native speakers."

Oh, God, why did you create so many different languages for humans? I bet you meant misery.
