Spanish translation tailored to Argentina #11

Conversation
Hi @nwolovick! Thanks for this pull request. I think this looks good based on the Google translate, but I'm unsure if the term "personas queer" is the right term. In American English, the term "gender queer" refers to people who have a gender identity that is outside the man/woman gender binary. It doesn't refer to people who are "queer" because they have a different sexual orientation. I'm afraid that using the term "personas queer" will give people the wrong idea. I'm not sure how the terms translate in Argentina. I'll put out a call on Twitter to make sure we have the right terms. |

One minor typo.
I have asked the RAE Consultas service on Twitter about a Spanish translation for "gender queer". They are the "language police" ;) so they ought to know. I'll let you know what they say. |
Probably "queer" without "personas" is just enough. |
The RAE seems to agree with @nwolovick . They replied with this:
https://twitter.com/RAEinforma/status/1053270096351817728 So "queer" or queer |
@nwolovick There were some grammar suggestions by @oscarvalenzuelab. Can you incorporate those and the change to just use the word "queer" into the poster and send a revised pull request? Thanks! |

Translation to spanish based on the brazilian version and tailored to Argentina.
I think it could be used in Latin America.
