Mensagem: | I completely agree with JR. It is not because English is a very important and influential language in the world that we should consider the other languages "crappy". The importance of some languages have changed along with time. Latin and French had their moment. English is important today, but in the future it can change. Or maybe English will change and mix with other languages, Spanish for instance. Even in the US, people see the importance of other languages. If you go to any ATM, it will ask you if you want "English" or "Spanish" for example. English is important. All of us in the forum must be here because we like the language. But let's not forget that other languages and cultures can also be rich and worth to learn it. That's only my "6 centavos". Jonas |
