Hello. Thanks for opening a PR on Exercism 🙂 We ask that all changes to Exercism are discussed on our Community Forum before being opened on GitHub. To enforce this, we automatically close all PRs that are submitted. That doesn't mean your PR is rejected but that we want the initial discussion about it to happen on our forum where a wide range of key contributors across the Exercism ecosystem can weigh in. You can use this link to copy this into a new topic on the forum. If we decide the PR is appropriate, we'll reopen it and continue with it, so please don't delete your local branch. If you're interested in learning more about this auto-responder, please read this blog post. Note: If this PR has been pre-approved, please link back to this PR on the forum thread and a maintainer or staff member will reopen it. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Approving... with a comment about the weirdness for the false reason to respond in English. Better in my opinion to not give a reason at all, but also English does not make anything "heard better", inherently.

+# Introduction
+
+Your friend Yaʻqūb works the counter at the busiest deli in town, slicing, weighing, and wrapping orders for a never-ending line of hungry customers.
+To keep things moving, each customer takes a numbered ticket when they arrive.
+
+When it’s time to call the next person, Yaʻqūb reads their number out loud, always in full English words to make sure everyone hears it clearly.
I concur. Being verbose to aid comprehension makes sense, logic and story wise. The word "English" in that sentence draws on it being a lingua franca which leans towards problematic.
One for the problem-specification repo -- or are we at liberty to diverge here?
You can diverge here with the hope that the same change is applied "upstream"
later. We can have what we might want early, and if it is later changed
upstream we can adjust accordingly.
Though doing this, it would be optimal to have some kind of a signal to know
that are change is literally no longer a change.
