i am getting so annoyed by the fact that almost everything in america has to be translated in spanish. here in america, we speak a common language called english. i can put up with the illegal immigrants not paying taxes and expecting rights, but the translation thing is really bothering me. my friends parents came from mexico. im very annoyed because her dad will not learn english and refuses to be a citizen but her mom sent in the form and pictures and is a citizen. her mom takes english classes at least once a week and can speak decent english. america has the 5th largest spanish speaking population in the world.
also, most people cant get a good job or into a good college without speaking spanish.

I am having a hard time deciding which language I would like to learn. It would be wonderful if someone could give me brief information on culture, food, arts, ect, from cultures behind languages like Italian, Spanish, and French.

Thank-You

Why is it that even intelligent people have lost the ability to spell and use the English language correctly? Is it really that hard to write the whole word? Is it hard to use apostrophes? What about when speaking? Is it so hard to put a 'g' at the end of your words? (I'm from the South.) Why is it that even college students don't know the difference between "its" and "it's?" I can barely read things written online anymore because they are shortened into the type of speech people use in text messages. Do people ever read books anymore? What about the English teachers? Are they at fault? I personally was taught very little grammar in school. My English teachers seemed to think that literature was much more important. Is that why American youth are so awful at English?

I was helping some other students in my technical writing class the other day, and their writing skills are laughable. What has happened to our language?

It must be VERY hard to use English correctly.

Can someone tell me if there are any grammar or vocabulary errors in this paragraph:


Cancion Del Mariachi es sobre el estilo de vida de un Mariachi. En la canción, él canta a la mujer que él adora. El dice que él no carece dinero ni amor. El cabalga en su caballo por las montañas, con las estrellas y la luna que lo dicen donde ir. También, le gusta tocar su guitarra y beber aguardiente y tequila blanco.


What I am trying to say in English is:

Cancion Del Mariachi is about the way of life of a Mariachi. In the song, he is singing to the woman that he loves. He says that he does not lack money or love. He rides on his horse through the mountains, with the stars and moon telling him where to go. He also likes to play his guitar and drink brandy and white tequila.

hey, can someone translate this song from Vanilla Sky for me? I know there is an English version also, but it's probably not the same translation. if you don't have time too translate the whole thing, then just the chorus is fine the (6 come 6) part.
thanks!

Ho perso e non so perchè
a volte la mia vita va da se
vorrei non pensarci più
ma tutto quel che ho dato torna su
è proprio km stare
in bilico tra terra ferma e mare

ho perso l’identità
cercando di fuggire la realtà
per salvarmi è tardi ormai
ma il tempo passa sempre prima o poi
e a costo di non capire
io questa notte me ne voglio andare

"6 come 6 non conta ciò che vuoi
do ancora una chance alla vita che vorrei
io sto impazzendo
do ancora una chance alla vita che vorrei
ma sto impazzendo"

Disperso tra le realtà
non ha più senso la verità
ho toccato il fondo ormai
non mi interessa più quello che vuoi
adesso è come stare
in una stanza buia in mezzo al ma

Shorten the alphabet - translate, if you can.

What if it was decided that the letter 'c' should be dropped from the alphabet and should be replased by either the letter 'k' or 's', and also that the letter 'x' should be removed? The only kase in which 'c' would remain would be in the 'ch' formation.

Then it might be disided to reform the use of the letter 'w', so that 'which' and 'one' take the same konsonant, to replase 'y' with 'i' and fiks the 'g/j' anomali wonse and for all.

Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear by iear bi doing awai with useless double konsonants, and modifiing vowlz and rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

It wud finali be posibl tu meik use of the ridandant letez 'c', 'y' and 'x'; -- bi now jast a memori in the mindz ov uold doderez -- tu replais 'ch', 'sh' and 'th' rispectivli.

The reason I'm asking is that some languages like German and Arabic have spoken regional dialects that differ from the formal written form of the language.

I am learning French so I really would like to know if I would always sound foreign using "book French" even if I speak with a perfect accent.

I feel that I understand enough Spanish to be able to effectively communicate with someone, the only problem that has hampered me in trying to become completely fluent in the language is that I cannot roll my R's. I put forth quite an effort into it when my mother married a guy who spoke Spanish, but he would only make fun of me when I couldn't pronounce things and it sort of gave me a negative attitude about ever trying to put forth any real effort. Now my employer will pay me more if I can speak Spanish, but not being able to roll my R's is making things difficult. Would I still be able to speak Spanish effectively without being able to do this? I was reading online and something said the only thing that can keep you from learning is a cleft palette or missing teeth, and I have neither, so I guess I should keep practicing and it will come one day. But if it doesn't for some reason, would I still have success speaking? thanks for your input.
