As far as I know there is no English language option in the site itself. But you can try what I do. Use Google Chrome as your web browser and make sure you turn on the automatic translation function. It will then translate from Spanish and many other languages for you. Works very well with Spanish websites. And in both the desktop and mobile versions of Google Chrome.Hi all, I just joined the gronze.com site today and I can’t get the English translation to come up. Does anyone know how to switch it to English while in the site?
Thanks!! I’ll give that a goAs far as I know there is no English language option in the site itself. But you can try what I do.

It is how I did it when using Google Chrome;
1. In the site, e.g., www.gronze.com, move the mouse (pointer) to anywhere in the page.
2. Right mouse click, a drop-down menu is popped up.
3. The last third entry is "translate to English".
4. Google will ask you if you also want to translate this site in English in future.
My concern as well, Rick. But hadn't thought of using chrome solely when I connect to pilgrim sites that need translation--thanks!I use Chrome for this forum because of the many links made here to non-English websites but most of my browsing is done in Firefox. This helps keep Google from knowing everything about me.
Oops. I forgot to mention that I also now use Chrome for sites where I have to enter a lot of information or Captcha confirmation. A number of times I've wasted much time filling these out and have the submit end up failing for some reason because the site was designed with only Chrome in mind.My concern as well, Rick.

With an Android device Google can auto translate or a simple copy and a translation bubble will pop up.Hi all, I just joined the gronze.com site today and I can’t get the English translation to come up. Does anyone know how to switch it to English while in the site?
Like you I’m struggling too find Gronze.com ( APP) anywhere in English,Hi all, I just joined the gronze.com site today and I can’t get the English translation to come up. Does anyone know how to switch it to English while in the site?
There is no App. Just use Chrome or adjust your browser settings as advised above. If you’re using a phone rather than any other IT resource learn a little SpanishLike you I’m struggling too find Gronze.com ( APP) anywhere in English,
Thanks, .. i got it in English ,.. working on to learn more Spanish. But retaining the words are different matter all together.There is no App. Just use Chrome or adjust your browser settings as advised above. If you’re using a phone rather than any other IT resource learn a little Spanishthe phrases and descriptors used on Gronze are simple and endlessly repeated
Alternatively to Google Translate, I recommend that you read Gronze.com "as is"! It is so condensed and easy to understand without knowledge of Spanish. The Gronze is very simple and straightforward, a great way to learn useful expressions while walking and repeating them in conversations. Pity that many English speakers are phobic to try, which others sometimes perceive as arrogance.Thanks all.. I got it!!
There is an English option on my iPhone and the I saved then saved to Notes.Hi all, I just joined the gronze.com site today and I can’t get the English translation to come up. Does anyone know how to switch it to English while in the site?
I agree that for the basic stages, distances, accommodations listing, you are much better off to leave it in Spanish. As @trecile tells us, Google Chrome will translate the names of places, and also, I assume, names of hotels, albergues, etc. That is decidedly unhelpful to pilgrims but unavoidable with a computer translation program.I recommend that you read Gronze.com "as is"!

A few years ago a peregrina on the Camigas FB page was complaining because her luggage didn't get delivered to the "Boarding House" that she had specified on the tag that she attached to her backpack. She was using the Buen Camino app which translates pensión to boarding house.As @trecile tells us, Google Chrome will translate the names of places, and also, I assume, names of hotels, albergues, etc.
