that's ignorance... the same thing and reason I gave in the first post... I only speak one language... I'm ignorant in that part, but it's cause I could sleep though the classes in highschool and it didn't matter... I wasn't taught how important communuicating with other people from other countries was... I was taught that Amerika was the best and everyone else should be like us
Where did you go to school? I was never taught that America was the best and everyone else should be like us. I finished public High School over 25 years ago and it was mandatory to have two years of a foreign language to graduate.

How many different countries with their different national languages can you drive through in a day in Europe? You can drive in a straight line for 3000 miles in the U.S. of A. and you'd still be in a country that speaks English as it's main language.

Maybe you slept through the part about how important it is to communicate.
