Keep a bilingual inquiry from becoming two different requests

A visitor writes in English, a colleague summarizes the request in Spanish and another team member sends a reply. If those versions live in separate places, an important detail can disappear between handovers.

Keep the original available

A Costa Rican business can preserve the customer's original message alongside a reviewed staff summary. The summary helps the team work; it should not silently replace the words the customer actually sent.

Agree terminology

Make a short list of service names, locations and commercial terms that need consistent handling. A literal translation may be awkward or misleading. Costa Rican Spanish review should cover form prompts and status messages, not only long marketing pages.

Review before commitment

If staff are confirming a date, amount or included service, assign a person to check that the reply matches the approved record. AI-assisted translation or drafting may help, but it does not establish professional language accuracy or commercial approval.

Test an inquiry containing a changed date and an ambiguous phrase. Ask both reviewers to explain what they believe has been requested. W3C language-declaration guidance explains a separate technical concern: identifying the language of a page. We can plan the content and review process without claiming native-language delivery that has not been arranged.
