Americans speak American English the English speak the King’s English...
This #FakeNews brought to you by the MSM-13.
FU!
Even so, it shows how common the German language was in the Revolutionary Era United States.
And Norwegian was here before Spanish.
Congress had a vote on the official language of the USA and English won out over German by one vote. Spanish came in as a non honorable mention.
German has fewer words, but the words can be as long as sentences.
English is far more versatile and precise compared to Spanish and most other language for that matter.
Well, this article is refreshing.
An editorial, actually marked as an editorial.
What a crock!
Just as MFM preaches that more illegal aliens are needed here to fill precious jobs, do what Americans won’t do. That worked so well they now wish to change our national Heritage and language. POOP on them.
NBC is certainly taking a lot on themselves.
NO ENGLISH; NO STAY HERE.
And English will borrow a word from another language whenever needed.
Hey...German is at least quite descriptive...:)

“Spanish is the most INEFFICIENT language on Earth.”
Speakers of the Norteno dialect on either side of the border with Texas don’t talk as rapidfire as folks further into Mexico do-we speak more slowly and have the same drawl in Spanish that we have in English. As to who speaks Spanish the fastest-I think Puerto Ricans and Cubans share that honor-they go on and on at lightspeed-you barely catch every 3d or 4th word-some Colombians talk really fast-then slam on the brakes to drag out a long vowel sound...
I’ve only heard “real” French from France spoken in “art”/film noir flicks, but my inefficient language vote goes to the French dialects spoken in Canada or parts of the US where there is a large ethnic French population-whether listening to MrT5 and his family chatter away in Quebecois, or him using the Cajun dialect with cousins in Louisiana, it still took 10 minutes of conversation and gestures to decide to go to a certain restaurant or grocery store...
We English-speakers don’t just borrow it...we CULTURALLY APPROPRIATE it, we STEAL it and make it OURS!
OK...Thanks...
NBC...Besame culo
Ya just gotta love German!
HEY !!! NBC !!!
The 1st European language spoken on your street was Dutch !!!
Whoops !!!
Then English, French, Swedish, German, African tribal languages...
The South West was not the USA...
California didnt enter the Union until 1850, Arizona even later...
And Santa Anna attacked a Mexican Texas...
Hmmmmmm
“Cubans”
Totally!
And sexist! Every word is gender specific. And only two genders!
These fidiots need to be eliminated ... from our country one way or the other.
