Correct. But the fact that about 100% of the people frequenting this and 
other conferences, Usenet groups etc. understand English is.
FG> And writing my messages in Spanish is a way of keeping our culture .
No.  If  your  culture  is  worth  the effort (and I believe it is) of
keeping it alive, abusing a C++  conference  for  this  purpose  isn't
necessary.
I'm  Swiss.  One  of  our  four  official languages is spoken by a few
thousand people (I'm not among them),  split  up  into  at  least  six
dialects.  Writing  messages  in  this language here wouldn't help the
language. It would just be stupid because  nobody  would  be  able  to
reply.
