It is not accurate to say the immigrants did not have to learn English. In fact, most newcomers realized they would need to speak at least some English if they wanted to be successful in America; this was especially true for those who wanted to become citizens, which required passing a test that was given entirely in English. But the reality was that many immigrants, especially those from impoverished backgrounds, had little time to study; they immediately went to work in factories or in other menial jobs where English skills were not essential, and they worked hard to support their family. There were some who went to night school and tried their best to master their new language; and a small number came from upper-class backgrounds and already knew some English. For the most part, however, the majority of the immigrants were focused on having their children study hard and learn English well.
