I was inspired by shirts like these: [url]http://www.foulmouthshirts.com/Political-t-shirts/shirtpages/USA-Speak-English-Or-Get-The-****-Out-T-shirt.htm[/url] to post this topic. How do people have the NERV to say "omg immigrants don't speak english they must die!" when so many 'Mericans are functionally illiterate.

My manager doesn't know what "short" or "curt" means. I may not be a smart man but at least I know what a vocabulary is.

In America, people just don't know the language very well if at all. I personally think those who were born here need to edumacate themselves (learn me a book) before they begin harping on immigrants.

Just start by saying "cup of tea" properly and we'll go from there.
