Only if people quit proof reading their questions.

of course it will in about 50 years..just check the 2000 census and see the rate Mexicans are reproducing compared to people who speak English...many Mexicans do try to assimilate...but many do not..

No if the US government makes English the official language. Then we can force people to learn and speak English if they want to survive in the United States.

I shouldn't be forced to learn another language, just so I can communicate with other people living here in the United States!

Doubtful... English is taught and very prevalent in many countries that normally don't speak it.

The reason.. the US is a world power and many countries (whether they like us or not) want to do business with us.

I don't think so, contrary to what certain lazy Hispanics want you to believe.
English is an amazingly flexible language. Since it has two very different grammatical systems merged into it, Germanic and Roman, it has been able to survive some major attempts at getting rid of it. I suspect that's one of the reasons why it is spoken worldwide--because it is so easy to take bits and pieces of other languages and incorporate them into the English language. This doesn't mean that people in four hundred years will speak the same English as we do, but they will be able to understand it as much as we understand the King James' Bible or Shakespeare.

I think english is just fine....there are enough things written in english that it would almost be impossible for the world to turn if everyone didn't know english....at least some people have to know it always.


rockinout
It is possible. I think we need to quit catering to these people who refuse to learn the language and either tell them to learn English or get out!!

No. Most industrialized countries speak English. In many Asian countries it is required to learn before they are allowed to graduate.

Look at it this way. As long as immigrants refuse to learn English you can be assured that they will continue to mow your lawn. This is one of those battles where they're only hurting themselves.

The American culture will become primitive if we lose English as our language!


sealRborders
Since the mexican people BREED like RABBITS,they will TRY to make spanish the official language in the future,but we WILL NOT let this happen!!!!

if we went to some other country we would have to speak there fing language so why cant they speak ours i think the us is to fing soft we are aways doing things for every body else and now we have to learn how to speak other languages in our home country so the fing illegal immigrants can under stand us i say ***** them they came here they should learn to talk to us
it just like the fire depo's here in Oregon they are demoting every one who does not speak Spanish because a few new fire men do not speak english so why the hell dont the ones who only speak spanish get demoted or better yet fired its ******** racism

Nope. English is the primary language of this country. Immigrants will quickly learn that in order to rise above low paying jobs they will need to learn English.

If your talking about the U.S.A.,

If you go to a foreign country you expect to try and speak their language if you want to get along, around, whatever. Same thing here in the U.S.A. English is the main language. Speak what you want when your at home or among friends or social groups and so on but English is the language of the land.

Did the Germans, the polish, the Irish, the Italians, all expect to come over to the U.S and expect everyone there to speak THEIR language, NO! They where happy to be in this country, they wanted a better way of life and where more than happy to have a single language so everyone could make progress together as a country.

I don't know, but I sure hope so. Soon all Americans will need to learn Spanish. Isn't that great. I feel sorry for those Americans who refuse to learn Spanish. They will be the minority. I think it's already happening. Your spelling is terrible!


chicago
you never know...
why is spanish all over the place?! If you're in this country learn the language or leave!


amy k
hey who knows...but English is not the US's official language, we actually don't have one...so i guess we'll all just have to learn, and since when is learning a bad thing?
