  1. The Chinese one is actually in simplified Chinese, and you missed the traditional Chinese one.

    (Members using traditional Chinese are much more than members using simplified Chinese, because Facebook is banned in mainland China.)

  3. Speakign of which the Chinese one has given rise to an entertaining pun-meme. Whereas English-speaking users frequently joke about wanting a "dislike button", Taiwanese users joke that in addition to a ? (zàn, "praise") button they would like a ? (gàn, "f- off") button: http://www.facebook.com/pages/wei-shen-me-zhi-you...

  4. It's surprising that they kept the thumbs up across so many languages. My initial expectation was that aside from just the language, that the symbol would change as well. I knew "thumbs up" was common, but did not know it transcended this many languages.

  9. First of all there is no Brazilian Portuguese. Brazilians speak PORTUGUESE with their own accent. Being so you should have Argentinian Spanish; Bolivian Spanish and so on… in Brazil they use CURTIR and in the real and only PORTUGUESE we say GOSTO…
