Learn Spanish
siervocal asked:

Not saying you have to, but I’ve noticed a couple of answers saying “I would learn a language worth learning like Japanese or German, not Spanish.” I think that those who say this kind of crap and are totally closed to Spanish just for the mere reason that most illegal immigrants come from Spanish-speaking countries, are plain ignorant. I personally speak Spanish, English, and learning German. You know that the problem in Latin America is with the poor, but we actually have some pretty good industries that can get you money. My real question: Why do you reject Latin Americans and rather go with the Asians or Europeans? Wouldn’t that be discrimination?
That’s the problem with all the antis, as soon as they see the word “Spanish” in a question they start yelling “don’t make me learn your language!” MY QUESTION IS, IF YOU WERE TO LEARN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE BECAUSE OF BUSINESS, EDUCATION, OR ANYTHING YOU WANT…. WHYYYYYYY IS IT THAT MANY PEOPLE AUTOMATICALLY TAKE SPANISH OFF THEIR LIST!!!!!!!!!????????????? Is that clear enough for you, antis?
Loretta, obviously you have never been out of your state. People in Spain do not speak “proper” Spanish, they speak differently. If this was the case, then American English would be wrong and British would be right.
JD thanks for the laugh. You don’t know a crap about Spanish, do you? Haha! You must be one of those stinky rednecks. Spanish is the language of many writers, diplomats, and artists. I could go on with the list but like I said, I don’t waste my time with pieces of trash like you. Go to sleep, old man.

I have been speaking english and learning German in high school. I will be going to college soon. My teachers tell me that instead of German, I need to learn Spanish because massive amounts of hispanics are comming here every day. Should I switch over?

MLK asked:

really, in what way wouldit improve this country ??

I feel the time it would take to learn Spanish would be better spent learning a skill that could be applied in the real world.

Please no answers like” So we can talk and understand the feelings of the illegal immigrants ” .

lmohdlp asked:

What is wrong with america? Towns are changing signs so the hispanics can read and drive ***! This is enabling them to get lazier (not all are lazy though.) If we go to mexico we are expected to learn there language not the other way around. But in america we need to learrn there’s so it easier for them. Absolutely ridiculous. Changing signs to spanish also should be illegal in the states I believe.

shy_angeleyes01 asked:

After all they came HERE we didn’t go there.
Management at my fathers company recently informed there Bosses that if they wanted to advance within the company they would be required to learn Spanish. One man stood up and asked Why can’t THEY learn English?.
WHY should US Citizens be forced to learn Spanish? Last time I checked we didn’t go to Mexico to steal Jobs and I’m sure if we did they wouldn’t be learning English to accomidate us.

mizzhollywood26 asked:

I say if Spanish speaking people are going to come over here, they should have to learn English. Not the other way around.
in school growing up, we are required to Spanish.
even in college for majors. I’m 26, and I remember looking at some majors that you would least expect that would require spanish classes.
