I think everyone on earth should be forced to speak ONLY english:
 

OK WE ARE NOT BABOONS ANYMORE.

wtf is the point of other peoples languages?
english rules, and when you do not speak it you sound like an idiot.

i know some countires do not have alot schools, but maybe we should take over their countries and force them to learn english?

just a thought.

or teach monkies english and have them work for free teaching other blacks english?

just a thought.

hopefully most people don't think the same :)

uggggggggg maybe we will let french canadians speak french still because their is nothing more painful then listening to you people attempt to speak english in your rechid accent. :Oh crap

I agree MetaMan now go back to school and start to study english as this is not how to spell countires :1orglaugh and Im not english :(

Let me make it simple, when you drop your pants and the girl mutters something you do not understand. You have the right to assume that she is praying to her lord that it will fit and that you must be of superior genetic stock to have a package that big.

I always wondered what the bitches were mumbling:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I am torn...

I don't know if that quote is better than...

Either way...comedy platinum

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I speak norwegian AND english...

I prefer people who dont speak English... it makes them easier to ignore.

I think everyone on Earth should understand and use basic punctuation, diction, and the use of nouns and proper nouns.

my dick is huge do you think i give a fuck about spelling?

Other languages render nuances of different systems of logic and thought.

Limiting ourselves to one language - while perhaps increasing efficiency in the short term, would -I feel - hamper the potential of our success as a species in the future. :2 cents:

why teach them all english when i don't give a fuck what they have to say anyways?

For us, English is just another medium of interaction between people. Is it something you are so proud of? You racist.

Fuck your english. Girls with french accents are amazingly hot.

I second that, totally.

English is great dont get me wrong but i dont think it would be a good idea for the whole world to speak english.

What an idiot. English is the hardest language to learn and most Americans dont even speak or write it correctly anyway. What is bound to happen is eventually just like race, all languages will blend together into one. Or it will blend together into 2-3 remaining and war will kill the other languages.

english is definitely NOT the hardest language to learn... :warning:winkwink:

jestes chyba niezlym ignorantem badz idiota :)

ale widac jest i miejsce dla takich w przyrodzie :)

go say that in Iraq and you`ll be retured in match boxes ... everyone should talk what language he want ... if you don`t like these countries and people simply don`t go there

hey just un idea MetaMan ... why not we all are forced to speak French or Chineese or Indian , or Spanish as then these will be much less people to be forced to learn forign language

Think about it

You logic is wrong on so many levels that there is not even an argument.

Why do you want to force all the people with such a stupidity?
If you can enforce them to do something, then make them vote you for president of the world, signup for your sites or whatever else. Be a bit more creative dude.

Would be nice if in America we all spoke English. Had all government shit in English and saved a ton of money... Need an interpreter for court? Hire one! If I go to Mexico they don't get me one so if no one in the court room is bilingual I am fucked.

Hardest? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Try Chinese or Korean or Russian

Maybe you can start with most American's and teach them first

I can see the argument for Chinese as lots of folks speak it but it does not do well typed or written. English is currently the worlds second language. I know labeling in 2 languages does not cost that much but it is wasteful so one world language would save tons of money etc. Then add in communication for trade etc and wow.

How nice would it be for the Pres to sit down with the pres of some country we are currently having an issue with and both speaking in their native tongues from birth work it out? Might have saved us Gulf War I and II.

It's amusing that the person calling for everyone to speak English is unable to capitalize sentences, form proper sentence structures or spell words properly.

Perhaps you should learn English before you tells others what they should or shouldn't do. :2 cents:

a u tebia hui malenkii

Adversus solem ne loquitor

well i think MetaMan is right but spelling are not:)

The English language is a infectious diseases.

I tried to read this but your English was too bad.

Sorry.

bummmmmmmmmmppppppppppppppppp !

I don't see any problem in speaking or listening to different languages, like whenever I heard Japanese, Italian or French, etc. speaking, it quite amazed me.

Dutch rules. Why? We are unique in our style of cursing. While other languages use profanity (fuck, shit, dickhead, etc.) the dutch language distinguishes itself from other languages by cursing with diseases - the most used disease is 'cancer', its like 'fuck' is in the english language.
Here are some of the many dutch curse words translated to english:
"cancer whore"
"cancer sufferor"
"cancer mongoloid"
"get the cancer!"
In dutch it sounds way better.

Better, more realistic, idea:

Force every member at GFY to take basic grammar and punctuation lessons, English or otherwise.

It's called culture and heritage. I suppose you would also like to burn down every library while you are at it.

oh yes you are
I think everyone should be forced to speak arabic, what do you think of that ?
yep, now you know how I feel.

Someone hasn't been to California yet. You can't order fast food without speaking Spanish these days.

I like spanish better.

This is wild so seriously people as a whole don't think it would be good for the earth if we had one common language regardless of what it is? or what if we required all school kids to pick a top three to learn just to combine it up a bit?

Top 5 Languages of the World - Source TIME Almanac 2001

1. Mandarin Chinese: 885 million

2. Spanish: 332 million

3. English: 322 million

4. Bengali: 189 million

5. Hindi: 182 million

Different list with some important changes -

Thus, if you add the secondary speaker populations to the primary speaker populations, you get the following (and I believe more accurate) list:
(number of speakers in parentheses)

1. Mandarin Chinese (1.12 billion)
2. English (480 million)
3. Spanish (320 million)
4. Russian (285 million)
5. French (265 million)

this thread is so S-M-R-T

The more languages you know the more cultures you open yourself to. If you want to remain ignorant no need to impose it on others.

THANK YOU slapass someone finally someone using their head.

most people are just quick to hate without actually thinking of the point.

Imaginae a worldwide language barrier being gone? imagine how much more cultures would understand eachother if we all fully understood eachothers message and things did not get lost in translation.

The world would be a much better place. More business would get done, and schooling would be easier.

If everyone knew english fluently then you would be able to enjoy EVERYONES culture to its full extent.

99% of you people have 0 brain, and cannot think for yourself. you are sheep, continue to walk in a straight line and do as you are told.

Language is an integral part of culture.

no really?

what are you going to tell me next 1 + 1 = 2
the sky is blue?

do you feel smart for pointing out something so absolutley..... obvious?
let me guess you wikipediad that one, good for you!

good job at missing the entire point.

english is not the hardest language to learn, it's actually very easy. try learning chinese or some slavic languages, they're much harder than english.
