  • @kristijan0kroflin I think they spoke American English for the event. I am not too sure if they speak another language beyond English themselves. I mean honestly, it would make logically sense if these speakers themselves actually speak another/ more languages. It is so hypocritical of these people of constantly promoting this propaganda when them themselves are not it.

    They are so full of themselves attending and being part of the CAL alumni family. So drenched in rank.

  • why is john cho there? hmmm...

  • people who shout what they are annoy me...e.g. FRESHMEEEEEEEEEENNN!!!!!!!!!!

  • BILINGUALISM is the KEY :) RESPECT for and learning in BOTH languages :) including SIGN languages :) An excellent video- thought provoking !!!! :)

  • Most definitely true: different languages are like parallel universes, each with its own incredible richness of expresive modalities. This is even true of languages as similar as French and English. When I read in Chinese, I truly feel I'm moving about in a world altogether different; my elation knows no bounds.
