[quote=Anonymous]You're so ignorant, OP.  On so many levels.

First of all, the children and grandchildren of immigrants lose their native language and adopt English.  The Washington Post recently published an article about how hard immigrants work to make sure their children grow up bilingual and usually they find it a losing battle against the influence of English.  See this link:

Second, notice what the *second* language is in all the other countries?  English!!!!!!!  English is not going away.  It will not disappear.  It has become the dominant language of the world.  As a linguist in the Post article notes,  the US is where other languages go to disappear.  The children of immigrants will grow up speaking English.

But, no don't bother doing any actual research about the process of assimilation in this country.  That wouldn't support your deluded sense of victimization.[/quote]
