In the State of California, we voted in 1986 to have English as our Official Language (seems silly and redundant - doesn't it!) However, our DRIVING TEST comes in 96 languages. I can't even name 96 languages!
How many languages does our ballot come in? This is getting out of hand....
When my family LEGALLY came here, we forced ourselves to learn English - without an accent - we WANTED to be Americans! We took PRIDE in being American and speaking English!
Why has this changed!
They even forgot they weren't Germans originally. It's created all sorts of difficulty in setting up that family branch's genealogy.
from where are you and your family.
