also because we border Mexico and especially in the southern us and Southern California Texas Arizona, etc there will be alot of Spanish. there are way more Spanish speakers here than polish or German or Greek

AnswerBecause English and Spanish are the two most commonly spoken languages in the U.S. There's nothing discriminatory about it. If there were as many Greek-speaking people in the U.S. as there are Spanish-speaking people, then all the signs would be in English, Greek and Spanish. The Power of English and SpanishAre you kidding? English is spoken WORLDWIDE so what's discriminatory against Polish, Italians, Greeks and French? English is the language of pilots and air controllers and commerce. Try living in today's world without flying and conducting business. English is the native language of an entire continent called Australia. Spanish is spoken throughout the Caribbean, Central and South America with the exception of Brazil. It's also spoken in north Africa in the enclaves of Ceuta, Mellila and the Canary Islands. Now take a look at where Polish is spoken, In Poland-that's it. How about Italian? In Italy and Sicily. French of course is spoken more widely than just in France but still is very very limited when compared to English and Spanish. Greek? Spoken in Greece, the Greek islands and in part of Cyprus. That's it.

spanish is also spoken in sub saharan west Africa. German is spoken some areas in northern Italy while Italian is also spoken in Switzerland. plus English is a native language in Malta. so the world is becoming a one language universe.

Is everything plural?

No, not everything is plural. Plurality depends on the language being used and the specific rules of that language. In English, plural nouns usually refer to more than one of something, while singular nouns refer to just one thing.


How do you use the adjectives of nationalities in plural?

To use adjectives of nationalities in plural, simply add an -s at the end of the adjective. For example, "French" becomes "Frenches" and "Italian" becomes "Italians". However, please note that this is not a common usage and is generally not used in English. Instead, we usually use the noun form to refer to a group of people, such as "the French" or "the Italians".


What foreign languages do Italians usually speak?

Italians tend to be practical. So they tend to learn the languages that are the most useful for them to know. They therefore tend to become fluent in English, French, and German. English is important to know because of its use in world business, politics and technology. French and German are the languages of Italy's neighbors, in France and Switzerland.Additionally, some Italians know Greek, Latin, and Slovene. Greek is the language of Italy's neighbor on the east side of the Adriatic Sea, Greece. Latin is the language of the country's ancient Roman legacy and of the pre-Vatican II liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church. Slovene is the language of Italy's neighbor to the northeast, Slovenia.Italians also may know Portuguese and Spanish. It doesn't require much hard work on their part to learn these two fellow Romance languages. And in the case of the Iberian Peninsula, Italy and Spain share blood ties in regard to some of each country's leading families.
