So does that mean lawyers can't use Latin words in court cases and doctors can't use Greek words?

No it does not. Lawyers and doctors are in private businesses, so I know this law has nothing to do with them. Were you hoping that would be the effect of the law?

I, personally, have been confused for a long time about how different government entities come about their conclusions about which other language besides English should be used to fulfill this need that non-English speaking people have. There are so many languages and so little space to print. It seems that the exclusion of any language is discriminatory, and there are too many for it to be practical to use them all, so maybe we should choose just one and stick with it. To make a decision about which language to use out of all languages, i say we should stick with the most widely used language so that the most people can benefit. Here in the USA, that would be English.

I suppose we could abandon written languages all together and just use little pictures, but then I think we would run into a problem with cultural difference causing some folks to misinterpret what the little pictures mean, and then we would be right back where we started.
