    My language is Turkish. I can write in English but can't speak much. In fact i don't speak too much in Turkish too. I'm actually quite shy. :)

    Why would Americans speak any other language?

    After all, EVERYBODY understands English as long as ... you ... talk ... slowly ... and ... with ... a ... stupid ... accent ....

    That's a proper name for an improper language. :p :shake:

    Mon Dieu! Peut-être les Americains sont les plus chauvinistique.
    (That was probably not correctly translated)
    We foreigners know that some countries don't care to learn an other languages. That's why I had to learn English in primary school and French in secundary.

    Edit: Forgot to put this smilie here: ;)

    I know English fluently and learn German at school, so I can sorta speak it. At the moment I have to write 600 words in German and do a 5 minute talk in German for my major study.
