List, I have a colleague who is working to become an Oracle DBA. As we've noted on this list before, an Oracle DBA needs to be a good reader. Unfortunately, his first language is Spanish. My assumption is that he can learn faster with Spanish-language materials, so should exhaust those first. I'm assuming with time, his English reading skills will improve with practice and having grasped concepts by reading Spanish, when those concepts are later encountered in English they will be re-learned more easily. Let me know if there is a better idea. I know a few people who participate on this list are from Spanish-speaking countries. Can you point me to Spanish-language resources? - Does Oracle make its documentation available in Spanish? I poked around but no joy so far. - I went into Amazon.com, searched for the word Oracle and using Advanced Search restricted the search to Spanish books. This yielded quite a few of the great classics which have been translated into Spanish. Do you have any other ideas where Spanish books on Oracle can be obtained? - Are there any good web sites? - Any good discussion groups? Again, this list is great, but is conducted in English. - I notice that when I search for a web page with Google, and the language on the page isn't English, Google helpfully offers to translate the page. I'm guessing there is a way to get Google to offer to translate a page into Spanish? Since Oracle uses many common English words, is auto-translation even worth the trouble? Thanks for any tips.
