[Suggestion] Language indicator for Groups

I suggest to add a Language indicator to every character in the Group window.

Explenation: ESO is a multiplayer game for people from a great variety of countrys with diffrent language backgrounds. Nonetheless is communication especially in Dungeons vitaly important, moreso with less experieced players. If it where possible for players to indicate which languages they are fluid in, preferrably in a first language second language kind of way, communication especially in vital areas like boss explanatios could be Enhanced and the overall quality of group play could get better. For some it is quite hard to muddle their way through an english explenation only to realise later : all the others speak german to.

    Because you can't just ask people what language they're fluent in. It's not like this game has a text chat...oh, hold on a second.

    No offence, but I don't think this is necessary right now.
    Profanity filter is a crime against the freedom of speech. Also gags.

    Just a quick question:
    Have you ever seen that question in a group? To open the conversation with “hi sprecht ihr deutsch “ is very stressful on a social component. There are a of people with minor or major social anxieties and the language can be a big factor.
    Also the question is not is it necessary (not really, no) but would it enhance the game in a positive way (i think it would).

    Yep. Well, that usually happens after a bit different scenario, like...
    1) Full wipe
    2) Somebody starts to explain stuff
    3) Nobody gets it
    4)"Pulp Fiction quote"

    Well or the scenario plays out like
    Wipe, explenation, ready, wipe again, more explenations, 3-5 wipes later boss down, soldiering on, after quiet the long run for a vet dungeon you get through it, in the passing remarks someone writes in i.e. german, oh we all speak german, that would have been so much easier.

    This language option is a good idea.
    it would be best if a player could set the languages he is comfortable with, especially if he knows more than one.
    The tool should be smart enough to not combine players who don't have at least one language in common
