Bilingual forum tips

I have a forum since 2002 about salsa music and dance, and it has always been in English, but so many people who love salsa speak Spanish as their native language. I was thinking of opening a forum (node) for Spanish language. Any tips on doing that effectively? Will Google be able to discern English and Spanish threads easily? Just in general, any tips?
 
I have had the same questions. Hopefully someone will answer.

Thank you, yes, the first line of code on this webpage is:

Code:
<html id="XF" lang="en-US" dir="LTR"

So it announces to the search engines that this page is in English. So it seems we would be sending some false signals to Google if we try to offer a section of the forum in another language. Ideally, things like the menu could be changed too in the case Node=Spanish.
