What is ROUND called in Spanish?

In Spanish Google Sheets it is REDONDEAR. The formula =ROUND(B1/B2,2) is written =REDONDEAR(B1/B2;2) (or with commas under a Mexico locale).

Why does ROUND use semicolons in some spreadsheets?

It depends on each spreadsheet's locale, under File > Settings. Where the comma is the decimal mark (Spain, much of South America), arguments are separated by semicolons. Mexico and United States locales use commas.
