My ex is a Spaniard. She has only spoken Spanish to her daughter, who was born and raised American. As a result of going to English speaking school, and her mother only communicating to her in Spanish, the girl remains fluent in Spanish, with English as her primary language (and accent). Where I draw the line is with those who refuse to learn English. A friend has a wife who is Colombian and speaks practically zero English in spite of living here several years. You want to live here and get along, speak English!

Had a story on the local television news. Cannery shutting down due to costs of operation. Interviewed a woman who had worked their 20 plus years. They had to have a translator for Spanish to English.
