yeah
exactly the argument in Belgium
so childish
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_la ... e_speakers
start learning Mandarin pls
the negative feelings don't come from different languages it's by creating barriers (such as making an other language a barrier instead of a mean to the good) and imagining language (religion/blablabla) to be one of those barriers
btw it's never my intention to come across harsh/offensive so pls don't take it that way

That's an interesting point tbf dude, and certainly one way to look at it. Something I hadn't thought of.
But still, probs not gonna happen, especially on something like road signs as they're pretty important.

its not really that interesting its 'my way or the highway' at best
ehbs you ignoramus
personally i think having multi-lingual signposts is just a signal of a countries inclusive mindset to above all else, facilitate the prosperity of all its citizens, which if im not mistaken, is central and most pivotal facet of the US Constitution

Also I would love to have the chance to learn Spanish on a daily basis with that ease! Broaden my horizons even more, so many countries I'll be able to visit and just talk native language

Ok mate, chill out.

I don't agree with him, but it's a more interesting reason than I previously assumed.

Reminds me of an episode of ER - Spanish speaking guy got fucked up/died because his medication said 'once a day' on the bottle.
Son knocked back 11.
Dr. Ross/Goose from Top Gun/the guy that lost gash to Eddie Murphy in Coming to America was pissed.

Dunno, watched it about 15 years ago. Think it was a grown man. Maybe a grown man fed them to his kid.
Point being is that it's probably a good idea to have language specific or multi-lingual packaging on stuff that can kill you/cause you to accidentally kill others and signposts etc.

You're located in Texas right if not mistaken?
Had a friend over there from an other game, lovely woman think you'd like her, very chillaxed

, should go over there once but haven't talked to her in ages. Just wish I had an easy way of learning Spanish, living amongst them is always the best way to learn a new tongue.
