if i pick a language with non-latin orthography, do you need any other info like a romanization?

e.g. say i pick hebrew, how should i present my guess

Another heads up re not-english.

The word "are" has multiple translations to french, for example. In other languages too, I'm sure.

It looks like if I can read your guess in Hebrew, it's not going to cut it. Since it's just translation, though, I'll look it up on the internet to see if it is an alternate correct form.

Yeah, I'll just take the 1st technically correct answer, whether it's what the list shows or not.

That way late pickers this round can't just snipe some easy 1k's once the #1 word is revealed.

Also, you'd need to specify the language. Otherwise, will just grade as English words at some point.
