I just read a job posting that made me smile on this Monday morning.
The job in question was into German and the poster had asked to specify the variant in the application, i.e. European, Latin, etc.
Latin German, wow. I didn´t know we were that exotic

Right, it looks funny
But the underlying reason must be rather prosaic: in the previous job by this outsourcer needed translation into Spanish or Portuguese, and simply forgot to change the settings.

that´s why I´ve posted it under "off-topic", because it wasn´t meant all that serious.
I assumed that it must have been forgotten to remove from some previous posting

but that wasn´t the point I wanted to make.
Seemingly it wasn´t perceived as "off-topic", therefore please feel free to delete this post. Thanks.
