Google Alerts

I've been using Google Alerts for a while and they work just fine. The thing is, I only get alerts of news published in Spanish (i live in Argentina, so I get automatically redirected to google.com.ar) and there's no option on the configuration site to set the language or languages i want to get the alerts in.
Any idea on how to solve it?
thanks

send them an email, and see if it has been translated, if not you can do google in your languange, and translate it yourself.

Andy I think you didn't get the message right...

She said that the only news she recives are in spanish and she wants to know news in other languages too..

Google Alerts just tell you some news if you have customized your country... maybe emailing them or looking really close :P...

Let me know if you find out... Sorry I can't help

I am right now checking my Google preferences and couldn't help but notice on the list of languages one named "ĦBork! ĦBork! ĦBork!"
I had no idea what it was ... and now that i know, it's a lot more fun to Google things up!
