On the occasions that I entered a country/region where English was widely spoken I made it a point to learn a few words/phrases of the local language.When in Quebec I politely ask "parlez-vous Anglais?" and say "merci".In Brazil I learned "obrigado" (thank you).In East Africa I learned "jambo" (hello).

But in this country I refuse to speak anything but English to anybody except foreign tourists who are polite and confused..and then I only know a few words of French and Spanish.

A common language promotes unity.

This is why usurpers do not want English promoted. As our common language.

A united country is stronger than a divided country.
