Why the discrimination against all other foreign languages that aren't Spanish?

well, if the others like the French, Koreans, Vietnamese, Swahili, and Uzbekistanis would get a lobby and a following, perhaps they would also get a number on the caller response automata.

There is no market, except that in the Northeast (because of proximity to Canada), there are occasional systems with French Prompts.

However, you may be pleased to know, that the Japanese are adding Korean to the list of languages used for transliterating subway and train station signs. (No translating, that would be too easy).

Of course, if you go to Spain, you would be hard pressed to find anyone who thinks that the languages spoken on this side of the Atlantic are even Spanish!

In California, where there are 37 million people, more than 1/3 are Hispanic. Only 12 % are Asian, and the Asian population includes 39 distinct ethnic groups who identify themselves as Asian, not Pacific Islander. (Cit: US Encyclopedia of Public Health, US Pop. Data, 2005, Census Bureau).

So, you feel that where 13 million Spanish speakers live, along with another 22 million English speakers, you want to claim discrimination because the approximately 1 million Koreans don't get a fair shake from the telemarketing companies?

I speak 3 other languages, and I don't think it's discrimination, it's market forces and the dominant culture.

Please note that Chinese and the Hindis aren't part of the dominant culture here.

Just wanted to get that off my chest, thanks.

So,

Of path we're. Don't jinx it although. I believe regularly Filipinos are very sincere persons, however there's consistently one to break it ultimately. @Cali d - He has been validated although, a number of occasions handed everybody. Once he used to be even re-validated (I believe they misplaced the pattern or whatever) and Pacquiao used to be stuck wholly unawares that he needed to take that experiment. It used to be only a week or so earlier than his combat. He handed it. Pacquiao is VERY blank. But he had when you consider that blamed the experiment so practically combat night time for his weak point. He possibly fallacious. But he's inclined to be validated three occasions, and as much as 14 days earlier than the combat. I'm definite you know the way steroids paintings. How a lot of a advantage do you believe that window of 14 days is? And take into account he could be validated proper after the combat as good, in order that 14 day window is honestly even smaller. However, I am in want of Pacquiao taking the experiment as much as the ringing of the bell. Just since its a laugh to peer what new call for workforce Mayweather could have if he does so. :-) But in seriousness, I desire him to take the experiment since I'm definite he is blank. So why supply the opponent a window he is not going to make use of? Also, I've learn a contemporary article that allowed for an excessively steeply-priced urine experiment for that drug that they mentioned would best be obvious via blood assessments. If that's precise, then the entire blood experiment hassle is now moot. No motive anymore for it to maintain.

Well, I have found that most of the people that speak Spanish in this country don't even try to learn English! I live near Miami and I HATE going there. Most of them aren't even citizens! Honestly though, I don't blame it all on them. Because of the community, they don't have to learn English. Everyone else complies with the fact that they know nothing about our language. I mean, we've started putting Spanish as a choice on automated systems! This has actually made me mad enough to where I've refused to learn Spanish, even though it would be the best move. I took French for 5 years and I have been working on the German language for 1.

look at china and India's populations, then you will see why that is true. as for your question the us harbors a ton of Spanish speakers and companies or whatever would want to appeal to this massive population. although there are certainly other prominent languages none compare to the sheer numbers that Spanish holds. i would not mind other language options but there is a point where it would get absurd. a solution would be to state your preference of language, but i doubt anybody would take on such an enterprise. the us has no federal language, so youre going to just have to bare with it.

Spanish is as special as any other language, but don't forget that you are living in the #1 capitalistic country and that the largest minority in it is the Hispanic. So, in this case $$$$$$ is what makes Spanish special.

Une bonne question. Je dirai que l'espagnol est devenu la langue de base a cause de notre proximite' aux pays hispanophones. De plus, nous y resistons le moins. Il faut rappeler qu'aux E.U. on veut que tout soit *applicable* et *utile* on rationalise que l'espagnol l'est.
