If absolutely everyone sense comfortable in talking in his/her own language, than there is no longer something incorrect . yet whilst any good paintings is provided in way N without Hindi it is not working easily than it would be use could. As being a countrywide Language ,virtually in each Indian state that's spoken, written N taught. even with the indisputable fact that it may no longer be a center element of struggling with.

Answer 3

I am an American Israeli Jew (3 nationalities). English is my mother-tongue. I speak a little Hebrew (language of Israel), but I am not fluent (my fault). I am proud of all my nationalities because we have given freedom and morality (10 commandments) and the concept of one G-d to the world (Judaism).

Many Filipinos work in Israel with the elderly. I don't have any personal experience with them, but I have heard that they are very kind and gentle to the elderly, and that they have immense respect for elderly people. So I am very glad that they are doing such a great and necessary job with our elderly people.

Answer 4

I am half English, half Swiss and now live in Switzerland. Although this makes me only half of each I do consider myself both. I'm a West-European and extremely proud of that fact. In fact you could even go so far as to call me a patriot and a traditionalist when it comes to my culture.
I speak perfect English which is my mother-tongue. I'm learning German and doing quite well, thank you. I'm also really wanting to learn Japanese because I really love the culture but its an uphill challenge to learn it.
Filipinos are cool. There are quite a few where I live and I get along with all of them, very nice people.

Answer 10

My nationality is UnitedStatesian. (Not American--because, I'm neither Canadian nor Mexican.)

But, really I'm a World Citizen. "The earth is one country and mankind its citizens." --Baha'u'llah

No, I'm not proud of being a UnitedStatesian because, Baha'u'llah, Prophet-Founder of the Baha'i Faith said:

"Glory, not, in this--that you love your country; glory in that you love mankind."

I'm patriotic (I love my country); but, not nationalistic (not more than the other countries of the world).

The nationalities of my forebears were English, Scottish, Irish and French.

My second language is Spanish. I'm proud of speaking Spanish, because it wasn't easy to learn a second language.

"There is, but, one race--the human race." --Baha'u'llah

He (Baha'u'llah) said mankind is like God's beautiful flower garden with flowers of all shapes, sizes, colors, fragrances. That a garden of flowers all the same size, shape, fragrance would be a boring garden.

How happy I am to belong to this beautiful human flower garden of God.

The only Filipinos I've known are a girl I was in 8th grade with, a guy I worked in a restaurant with, and now, living in China, I know three (3) who are English teachers, and two (2) who are musician and vocalist members of a band, who dance, play instruments and sing. They were all, and are, great. Very special people. Very physically beautiful, very sweet and spiritual people. (And great dancers.)

Love and blessings to all of you, my fellow flowers.
