Why must I learn to speak English in America when most Americans refuse to learn my language?
Answer:
Just like in any other post. People always assume it's Mexican asking this question. Only shows and proves how ignorant Americans really are. How pathetic!
If I went to live and work in your country I would learn to speak the language.
In mine, you learn my language.
It is that simple.
are you mexican?
if so..quit your bitching
Who said you must?
Life is unfair anyway, deal with it.
This is not a question about immigration. It has nothing to do with people being here illegally.
Apparently you *already* know English, so I haven't the foggiest notion why you should learn it!
cry baby
tell me what contry and I will give you a answer. tell it to alolo the schools that need to have more langualge tought I would love to learn somhing new other then spanish
If I go to Mexico, and expect them to learn English to accomidate me, I'm a jackass.
If you come to America and expect us to learn Spanish to accomidate you, you're a jackass.
You obviously already know at least some English. But I'm going to answer this anyways. You are here in our country you should have to learn our language. You have come here uninvited so why should we have to learn your language?
It is not unfair, you are in an English speaking country. English is the national language of the USA. Get over yourself if you want to live in an English speaking country, learn English. If I wanted to go to Mexico (highly unlikely) then I would learn Spanish. By the way how many Mexicans learn/speak English if they live in Mexico?
Look, english is the main language in the United States, just as Spanish is in Mexico, or italian in Italy. Every country has its own language, if your gonna live in the U.S. you gotta know english, cause when the day comes when you need help and you dont know english your gonna get boned. Just like someone in mexico that cant speak spanish, theyre gonna be boned when they need help. That just the way it is, I mean im bilingual, but i speak mostly english. It might seem racial to you, but its not.
maybe because in America we speak english?
however I know many Americans they learn to speak
spanish for job reason
and that because the majority of latino resident in US
are to lazy to learn our language
You should not. Learn English if you think it will benefit your life personally (employment, business, social, etc.). If you do not think it will make your life easier and/or better do not do it. One thing to consider though. English is now the global language. It is the language of commerce and information. I lived in Malaysia (Borneo -Sarawak) for over 3 years and they spoke better English there than I do (Queen's English). Most people I talked to, even in the Jungle, understood me because of English Language-i.e. American-TV programs. I learned Malay because there were some things that it did not translate well into English. I learned half hazardly with no structure. The main thing i want to say to you is that you should learn what you think will benefit YOUR life and the hell with what others think. Life is too short to always do what others expect and/or require.
You call yourself "proud ILLEGAL immigrant", then ask WHY Americans won't learn your language?
GO AWAY you criminal!!
When in Rome.
You sound foolish. As the saying goes, " When in Rome do as the Romans do". Your disrespect for America is showing
Didn't you know before you came here that the language of America is English?
Why would you have any objection to learning the language of your host country, especially since you intend to stay here?
Your arrogance and disrespect for the American culture is offensive. And for this, we hate you back.
Welcome to America, our language is English. If you don't like it, than go home.
Your not asking the right questions, If you are truely proud of being an ILLEGAL. You chose to break the law,and now you want AMERICAN CITIZENS to learn your language to accommodate you. Keep talking,It makes the AMERICAN ELECTORATE that much more determined to get you out of our country.
The reason why is because you are in America. " The United States of America"
It's respectful to Americans and our country to speak our language.
I hate it as it is , everywhere I go anymore I cannot understand all these people from other countries talking. Sound like a bunch of squeeling pigs ...
will you pay for all the services that must be provided for you in your language? will you pay for the language classes to teach all of us your language since you came to a country uninvited knowing that its an English speaking country? if i go to your country will you learn my language because i don't want to learn whatever you speak? you probably said no to all of those so do us a favor just learn the language because your disrespecting a nation when you decide your too lazy to come to a country and not learn its language.
If you are illegal you aren't entitled to fairness. You left that back in mexico.
Are you really illegal or are you just trying to encourage Mexican hate.
If you really were illegal then you wouldn't have asked this question.
Our people knew the consequences and risks when we crossed over illegal or not. We knew we had to learn english. AND the REAL hispanics have worked hard to achieve a better life we never expected it to be easy.
No ves mexicanos pidiendo dinero en la calle;
los miras trabajando duro por sus familias;
Si debemos aprender Ingles aprenderemos ingles
Ya sabemos que no todo es justo
Im an immigrant and Im proud OF THE THINGS THAT I HOPE TO ACHIEVE AND OF BEING WERE I AM FROM
DONT GIVE OUR PEOPLE AN IGNORANT REPUTATION AS WE ARE NOT LIKE THAT
Lets see how proud you are when the well dries up soon! Employers will be forced to let you go, you won't be able to work here much longer, or get a driver's license, or rent a place to live, or get free medical care, or have "anchor babies".
The days of the illegal aliens free ride is coming to a end!
First of all, your language is not the only language foreign to Americans.
To be fair, Americans would have to learn to speak all the languages spoken in America.
Quite a large task.
The other side of the coin is the concept of freedom of choice.
I personally would be interested in learning a new language but not for the purpose of accommodating someone who thinks the world owes them something.
Common courtesy ?
It is not that much to ask - you want to live in a country other than the one you are a citizen of .
The same can be said of immigrating to Japan , Russia , Switzerland, Norway, Egypt or Poland...
Why is it only America everyone has a problem with?
Could it be the fact those other countries have strict immigration laws and enforce them but no one cares or is it just easier to whine about a problem instead of learning a language?
1. This is AMERICA our country our rules..
2. If I lived in your country, I would learn your language.
So dont take it personally, everyone has to do it :)
because english is the main language. lol
yha, its so unfair...to speak English I feel so sorry for you..if its so hard then you can go back to your country and speak that language..and then its all good.
As someone pointed out****if we were to go to your country to live we would need to communicate with others for many reasons therefore it would be in my best interest to learn that other language.********
