@angie4ever101 So what? The US does NOT have English as the official language. The US does NOT have any official languages. And Spanish doesn't come from Mexico. It comes from Spain, Europe. And Spanish people were the first to discover the American continent.

@TheSovietDwarf carpe diem

@zungaloca I did four years of Latin in high school. And which kind of Greek? Modern or Ancient? There is a difference between those two types of Greek. Do you speak all those languages my friend? I don't really think so.
And there are modern, more useful, languages that have achieved the same status(through literature, philosophy, art) as those dead languages: French, Italian, German, Chinese.

@TheSovietDwarf first learn Latin, Greek or Sanskrit?.
(UP the most meaningful word in the world)

@zungaloca This conversation is now going far away from the main subject.
Fare thee well my dear YouTube dialogue-partner.
PS: Adventure yourself into the magnificent world of linguistics and learning new languages.

@TheSovietDwarf The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that the English language is as pure as a crib-house whore. It not only borrows words from other languages, but sometimes has pursued other languagesdown dark passages, with clubbed unconscious and rifled their pockets for new vocabulary.

@zungaloca Spanish has more irregular verbs than English, and even than French! English has achieved a status in a few hundreds of years that Spanish or any other language won't achieve soon.
I think it's time you stopped all this nonsense and started doing something better for yourself. These comments won't help you too much in your future.

English many adverbial phrases that misuse of many people, has many irregular verbs its crazy ways of spelling words has stresses that could completely change the meaning of a sentence poems are difficult to read, even for fluent. Native speakers of English have difficulty expressing both their thoughts in English. i have heard a lot english native people. I think it's time to be honest and respect for better languages.
Same old Americans. Just look at all the comments on here. very childish. Obama is clearly right. wat is wrong with learning a new language u twats ??? It does not KILL u.

I like the 1k dislikes from the lazy ass redneck society we have become. We should all know more than one language. Its completely true that most foreigners speak more than one, while we live in the little illusion that its our world and everyone needs to learn our language. Guess what, we should be learning spanish as 70 million put of 300 in the US already do. And we should learn chinese cause by our own logic whoever owns the world is the primary language.
