I agree with this, even for someone like me whose first language is English the Airbus manuals can sometimes be hard work.
One small example of this, if you look in one of the uncustomised manuals (The SRM for example) Airbus will list each and every MSN, one list might be the A319, another the A320 etc, etc. Why couldn't they just state A319, A320 or Effectivity ALL ?
The effectivity can be filtered in Airnav or AirnavX but it doesn't always work.
Boeing make your life easier with "Effectivity ALL" or B737-700 etc.
