Notice that the "primary" language of Ukraine is Russian, and Ukrainian is not even listed. I think the omnipresence of English is partially an artifact of Philips' language capabilities.

You know, a lot of people who 'look' illegal, they really aren't. I realized this once when I was in the 'us citizen' line in Dulles. It was very eye opening.

You fail to state why it's a bad thing for a country to have more than one language. It's only bad if you're a hateful xenophobe. Me, I'm thrilled to have access to awesome authentic hispanic food, for my kid to be learning spanish from her school friends, and for a new generation of hard-working, family-loving, friendly folks to be stepping into gaps in the economy that "real" Americans are too lazy and entitled to fill.
You know who else was totally obsessed with a master race, and purity of language and culture? That's right.

Also, since you don't seem to speak English correctly..maybe you should try Spanish.

OP, you're an idiot. Please construct a grammatically correct sentence before you post about illegals.

All the countries listed have English as their second language. The first line is the local language.

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.

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.
"losing" Native language? Aren't they US citizens? Isn't English their Native language?
