Language of Documents at Interview (K1)

Since the interview for a K1 visa is held in the foreign country, can documents of proof of relationship such as emails, chat logs, etc be in the language of the foreign country? For example my country is Mexico. For USCIS I had to translate some things into English as required. But, since the interview will not be in the US, does that requirement still apply? Can I have emails and chat logs in Spanish? Thanks.

Has anyone else brought documents of proof of relationship such as emails, chat logs, etc. in the foreign language of their fiancee to their interview without having to worry about translating them? I ask this because when you submit the I-129F you have to translate all foreign language documents. I am thinking that for the USCIS you have to do this because its local in the US and they handle everything in English, but at the interview you are in the foreign country and it should not matter. Is this right?

Documents are either in English or the language of the foreign country of where the interview will take place. So for you Spanish is allowed.
