Nothing hotter than a chick speaking French. I heard a French chick talking yesterday and without even gawping at her rack I got a semi. I agree with Magnus.

In the 19th century, immigrants clustered in communities where they kept speaking German or Gaelic, and often the first generation to come to this country at that time never learned English, either. Ignorant white people made a big fuss about immigration back then, too, but I don't see anybody complaining about the Irish or the Germans anymore...

Of course i learn a few phrases of common courtesy and try to observe local customs. To be fair a lot of countries have signs in english and whatever the native tounge is, so i could see why some americans expect the natives to know english.
