One aspect of these kiosks that is often overlooked is that it's an exceptionally better experience if you don't speak the native language. It allows you to order exactly what you want, customize it how you want it, and not have to stumble through a foreign language.
- Freak_NL 8y agoBut stumbling through a foreign language is one of the nice things about being on holiday. It puts things in perspective. Why bother going abroad at all if you don't intend to either learn the local language (work, study), or just want to experience the foreignness of it all (leisure)?
- majewsky 8y ago> Why bother going abroad at all To experience a different: - climate - landscape - city size (there are no 10M+ cities on my continent) - architecture style - culture (can be very diverse between speakers of the same language)
- gsich 8y agoWhy do anything that makes life more comfortable?
- Humdeee 8y agoI don't see how companies can overlook language support in any kiosk. I live in Canada on the border between Ontario and Quebec and nearly all interactive procedures start with choosing "English" or "French" as a step 1 to progressing to anything else. Choosing a language or making it obvious to change the language from the default would be standard I imagine. I should be able to fly to China and order a meal with very little difficulty, if any.
