Out of curiousity. How many people get annoyed when people ask questions in another language?

I'm probably going to come across as rude but it annoys the hell outta me. English please! Makes it easier for all of us.

Now your opinions :]

Update:

Well I mean in general (like in any section) but thanks for being the first to answer :]

Update 2:

Okay. Everyone who responded. Read this.

PJ Morris: It's good to know I'm not the only one feeling this way. :] Great minds.

peter gunn: yeah I do agree with you on the "first grade English" thing. Some people on here can barely put a proper sentence together.

Robert S: I never said I'm offended by diversty. I never even mentioned diversity... I think some difference is good.

Paul: Yeah good point. There is a place for everything. :]

askawow47: I didn't ask if it was possible. I just wanted to know what people thought.

delhitewonder: lol @ "LANGUAGE IS GUD ". I know you mean well :]

>ThE.mAn.WhO.lAuGhS<: Yeah I knew someone would write a reply in a langauge other than English. Guess that's you.

prahlad d: Excellent point.

Andrew: As long as you don't do it again lol :]

♥Holly Cookie Starr ™♥: Yeah true. I only know English though so I get annoyed often :]

physician: I live in Australia. So I don't really understand half of what you said about native Americans and stuff.

    definite, they have a top to curse a criminal who has placed the Officer to the decrease. walk interior the shoes of a Police Officer or the different regulation actual and you will see and hear some incredibly undesirable stuff , popping out of the mouths of the guy being arrested. what's it, with the guy being arrested that they are able to no longer persist with orders ?? everyone being arrested is taken care of like the cime they have committed. try chasing a criminal who has no appreciate for different peoples lives. Speeds going as much as a hundred and twenty miles consistent with hour. Our cops have vast self administration, simply by fact after a severe velocity chase, the temptation to assult the criminal is superb, quite, if he/she has merely killed an harmless pedestrian. what's ill is the responsible cries like somewhat one, whilst observed as a attractiveness, so nicely deserved. no longer so problematic , whilst caught.

    Well, if it annoys you, I sure feel sorry for you.

    Perhaps you should move to London. Otherwise you will have a heart attack due to the annoying

    We are here to stay, and we will grow in number

    You like it ? Good. You don't like it ? Good

    Just consider that you are getting a taste of your own medicine. That is called Karma

    Instead of learning the language of the Native Americans, you made them learn english. Now something similar is happening to you

    But don't worry, we will not put you in reservations, like you did with them. We are not bad guys

    And why English? Because it's your language and you get offended by diversity? Differences are what makes us grow. I sometimes feel a little fustrated by people using other languages, because then I can't help. Remember the Internet is World Wide.

    What is ze matter you don't like ze French??

    To be honest It bugs me to see people making such blatant errors in their "attempts at first grade English" I thought you people spawned the damn language I'm in no way perfect but at least I know where the spell checker on this thing is.

    Oh BTW hello gorgeous.

    I'm brazilian, and i don't like when people ask questions in english on Yahoo! Brasil, when i want to ask questions in english, i ask here, i think each thing must be in it own place. An example: If i ask a question in portuguese here, none will answer and my question will be useless, the same thing occurs if i ask questions in english at the Brazil's page.

    Ok, I'll come clean ! I asked a question in French but it was to see how many people knew a little bit of French.

    (I promise not to do it again - honest!) ;-)
