Just like I disagree with some ignorant in-laws and friends who, when traveling in a foreign country, were livid that the shopkeepers, etc. did not all speak English. (Hang my head in shame...)

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 16:19:06 +0000 http://www.howrudeareyou.com/?p=278#comment-57 I've got news for you...even spanish speaking people who know both languages prefer to speak English. The immigrants that come from spanish speaking countries are so uppity (sp?) about pronounciation that if any member of my spanish speaking family is having a conversation they tell them to speak in english to them. We kind of just blended english and spanish as what you all come to know as Spanglish, which is a no no is Spanish speaking countries, it's not proper. When an immigrant comes over from ANY country or GOES to any country and doesn't know the language I believe it cripples them from thriving in that country. I know of an Italian guy who came over from Italy to work for his families business here in America. They all spoke both languages so it was never forced upon him to speak anything other than Italian because that's all they ever spoke to him. When he decided to leave the business and move to California, he came back within 2 months because he couldn't speak a lick of English and hindered his ability to get a job that wasn't manual labor. Slowly but surely he is learning English and surprised me when he was able to say to me (in English) that he was happy to be learning the language.
