[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would expect it to be rude to have an expectation either way - that you do speak fluent English or that you don't. As you say, plenty of people have English less clear than yours, so why should I expect based on skin color that someone is or isn't fluent?[/quote] I don’t think it’s rude to have the assumption that someone living and working in the us speaks English. [/quote] Agree! It’s normal to assume that someone permanently living and working in USA speaks, reads, and writes well in English. Why wouldn’t that be the case??[/quote] It probably depends where you are. I’m a teacher and very few of the Spanish speaking parents speak any English. In my neighborhood it’s a mix, some do some don’t.[/quote]
