Americans when people from other countries come to theirs : “These people need to speak English”
Americans when they visit other people’s countries : “Why don’t these people speak English???”
Why is it baby Yoda though?
Because Yoda is one of the galaxy’s most recognized linguists?

That’s pretty far into the future I have to guess
His side hustle is teaching Shyriiwook
I think group would be speaking Mando’a instead
That’s his first language, but he’s trilingual. The third one is passive aggressive sarcasm.
About 1.3 billion people (or approximately 16% of the world’s population) speak a variety of Chinese as their first language.
Many of those “varieties” are not mutually intelligible and are actually considered unique, distinct languages

好似我咁
But some Americans already speak a little bit of another language… ¿por qué piensa que nosotros no hablamos español en Florida? (Sorry off terrible still learning unfortunately)
Don’t worry, your Spanish is perfect. But ain’t that cool to live in a place where people can speak two languages? As a latin American who has spoken English for most of my life (yet I still mess up sometimes), I can’t imagine only speaking one. Also, my daughter started learning ASL (just out of curiosity), so I’m helping her and learning a bit too, sice I think not enough people knows it. Sorry for the long comment, but communication is fucking important, specially good one.
Hahaha I go to Miami all the time, it feels like I’m in Latin America there. So yes, some Americans do speak Spanish. And Florida is definitely in the future already
Sí, por supuesto. :)

O futuro é bilíngue
Estou cansado,… Je suis fatigué de tout 😂
The vast majority of Americans do know Spanish. The only people who don’t are Canadians, USians, maybe Brazilians, Jamaicans, etc.
Most Americans do not speak Spanish. Knowing a phrase or two does not mean you’re speaking the language.
Exactly
I think you need to research what the words “vast majority” mean lol. The vast majority of Americans definitely do not know Spanish 😂
Are you defining Americans as “people that live on the American continent and the Caribbean” or “people that live in the United States of America”?
I think OP means the former.
Nobody in the Caribbean calls themselves Americans 😂😂
Mexicans do not call themselves Americans even knowing they are from North America.
I’m defining Americans as most people do, the people that fucking sing God Bless America. Nobody in Latin America calls themselves Americanos, americanos son los gringos, de los EEUU
People from and what they are called in English : Mexico - Mexicans, Canada - Canadians, Colombia - Colombians, Venezuela - Venezuelans, Panama - Panamanians, Brazil - Brazilians, Etc etc
Do you see a pattern? People from United States of America - Americans
Only on Reddit or Lemmy and places like them would you get a bunch of nerds storming in to say everybody in North, Central and South America are Americans.
On CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, Voice of America etc.,etc Americans are the people of the USA.
Or when they present poll results of Americans, they polled in Mexico, Ecuador, El Salvador, Canada etc etc too?
