I must remind you that French was also more prevelent than English for quite some time. America (and you should check who it was called after!Not an English speaker.) was 'discovered' by Christopher Colombus an Italian speaker who arrived with a crew of - wait for it!- Spanish speakers!I am from Ireland, a country where our native language still survives despite being opressed. The result? Ireland has produced some of the finest writers in the language forced on us. James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift and Samuel Beckett for example. So learn pocos palabras. It's not all bad!you might become a great writer like Cervantes. Just stop tilting at windmills! Jodee,

Our ancestors came to america wanting to learn the american english, they felt it was a great honor and privilege to learn the language of the country that accepted them as american's! But as we all know spanish speaking immigrants don't feel they should learn the language of the country that has excepted them, give them countless opportunities (all free) but they still refuse to learn the language of our great country. I don't like the fact that I need to cater to them and learn spanish but at least I will know what they truely saying and maybe since learning their language I will be able to help change a few things!! Another note of interest; it is amazing to me that the native spanish speaker picks and chooses what he/she can understand or not understand depending on what they will gain and benefit from by understanding or not understanding our language, which is AMERICAN ENGLISH!!
