Does anyone else find it disturbing that the National Weather Service
in the United States is paying out taxpayer money to a government
employee to create a foreign-language web page?

por supuesto pero yo pienso mas gente en estado unidos falta educacion
como otro pieses y lenguas. Esta claro que mas latinos viene aqui y el
mundo es cambiando. No cambio o adjustamente por el individual, el es
muerte en la agua.
Times are changing my friend. I am one of the most adamant in the USA
regarding the use of english as our language but I fear I am ****ing
in the wind. In most of the foreign countries I worked in, I had to
learn at least a modicum of the language to survive. It is indeed
unfortunate that our education system, and by extension, most
Americans, never learn a foreign language well enough to carry on a
simple conversation in anything but english.
To that end, I am making an effort to teach my new son several
languages while he is still in the early stages of speech development
so he'll be able to function in a multi-lingual world.
You should have seen me raising hell in a post office in CA where all
the signs were in spanish. I made enough of a stink that all the signs
were duplicated in english by the end of the week.
I guess it beats being in arabic......or Finnish? ggg


Just wait. Pretty soon our signs will look like the instruction sheets
for most appliances. Three pages of instructions that take 30 pages to
print in 10 different languages.

We already have that. No wait - that's legalese - the official language
of Congress.
