1 Crystal Baker Shoaie Posted Tuesday at 10:27 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 10:27 PM I know it's not as convenient or personal as spoken communication, but you could try writing it and using an online translator. Try to get an answer from them also via an online translator, to make sure the message got through correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you communicate with clients who speak another language? I never know what is appropriate when you can't communicate with someone but can't find a translator and need to communicate an idea that could affect their overall health.
