Why can't north americans learn spanish?
>>221727391I can speak a little bit of spanish if u want
>>221727391Why should I have to learn Spanish? I have no desire to visit Mexico, Latin America, or even Spain. Besides, I’m learning French instead.
>>221727391They should perfect their english first
>>221727391Because Spanish is a retarded language, I'm in Argentina right now and I can't understand a single word they say
>>221727884basically this, we rather learn anything else beside spanish. It's almost like an insult to learn spanish
>>221727391Nos podemos. Por qué los Mexicanos no aprenden Inglés?
>>221727391Periquito nordestino
>>221727391Why should they, they should be speaking German
>>221728012But few Americans learn any other language>>221727391Low iq, anti intellectual culture and abysmal education system
>>221727391>>221729420Why can't your people learn english?
>>221727884If you can't even learn something as easy as Spanish you're just too retarded et t'es en train de perdre ton temps en apprenant une langue si complexe comme la langue d'oeil, c'est pas pour les débiles, tu le sais?. Gringo ignaro.
>>221729845Can't read all that shit nigga
>>221729845>une langue si complexe comme la langue d'oeil. c'est pas pour les débiles, tu le sais?Get the fuck over yourself, you swarthy sudaca. It’s not like French is fucking Finnish or Estonian. Also, I just prefer French over Spanish. It’s not a case of can’t.
>>221729845Tu es un pdMatate, pendejoLook, I can post in multiple languages, too.
>>221731752Unlike the French who can't speak English for shit. Americans can't really learn any other languages besides their own. Mi todo no sabo.
>>221731533I also can read Latin, ancient Greek, took Sanskrit in college. I also speak Portuguese from my youth.
>>221732682Are there any books you can read that will make you stop being Chilean
>>221727391Why would they even want to?
>>221727391WE SPEAKA DA ENGLISH HERE COMPRENDE MUCHACHO?
>>221729420The more time you spend learning another language is time spent not reading, learning languages can be just as anti-intellectual as so many people only do so just to sexpat or show off polyglot skills. The amount of information you have access to just by knowing English dwarfs every other language by leagues. The only time I've ever felt compelled to learn another language is if a book I want to read has no English translation.
>>221734143Exactly. Imagine if I asked you to learn Portuguese or Dutch. It has its benefits here, but we’re still given the option to learn French or German. Spanish isn’t a mandatory subject in American schools. Plus, English is ubiquitous and will not falter as the Lingua Franca for quite some time. I don’t know why we only get shit on for being dumb monolinguals when other anglos like Bongs and Aussies are just as monolingual.
>>221734238I like how people praise Japan for being monolingual yet shit on the US for it, despite their language being globally less useful.
>>221734319Personally, I don’t like the sound of Spanish. Maybe that’s because I’m surrounded by Mexicans. Idk. French just sounds much nicer in my opinion. Plus I travel to Quebec every now and then. There’s no where in Latin America I want to visit lol. Unless you fucking live in Miami, you’re going to be hearing English 95% of the time
>>221727979Boludo.
>>221734143In the case of the United States, they have tens of millions of people in their country who speak Spanish, like about 20% of the population.They have entire industries that make their advertising in Spanish specifically to target Spanish-speakers.There are countless businesses that hire preferentially English-Spanish bilinguals, or reward their bilingual employees.At this point the Spanish-speaking population has reached the critical mass that many no longer even need to learn English to live, which means it's an untapped market unless you speak their language.Literally the most useful language that you could learn if you live in the Americas, and also one of the world's easiest to learn.
>>221734383>Personally, I don’t like the sound of Spanish. Maybe that’s because I’m surrounded by Mexicans.I could see that. They have a tendency to scream rather than speak.
>>221734442Weird, you'd think they'd be forced to learn English or at the very least pick it up through osmosis. It's not particularly hard to learn.
>>221734383Spanish feels to real. French feels better
>>221727884Because you live in Latin America nowIt's only fair you submit to the new arrivals
>>221734459>>221734508Unlike you guys, we don’t learn foreign languages until very late (some as late as high school). Unless you live in an area with a ton of hispanophones, you won’t be picking it up via osmosis. You’ll just be learning in class, just like how Finns are forced to learn Swedish. The ones who do learn a foreign language stick with it because they are interested in the culture or are dating someone from that culture
>>221734508This used to be the case. The US system used to assimilate and force them to learn English with economic incentives.The problem is that during the Biden administration there were just too many that came over in so little time.Literally over 20 million people in 4 years. So they can create their own small parallel economy where Spanish is a valuable skill and English is not so needed.They still learn some English, enough to get by, but not at the high level required in the past.
>>221734508In the southwest increasingly they don't have to because they outnumber us.
>>221734586In the past immigrant's were forced to change their last names to anglo last names, whereas now no one cares we've completed given up on the idea that new arrivals need to even pretend to care abo the country they're immigrating to. It's fine we'll just segregate/balkanize
>>221734578>Unlike you guysYou overestimate our education system. What we learn in school is beyond barebones. I'd venture to say most, if not all, of us beaners are self-taught.
>>221727391MEXICO IS NORTH AMERICAYOU RETARDED GOLEM!!
>>221734656This is a benefit not a drawback. They had me reading novels in the 2nd grade, like just after you learn to write. Then the reading just piles on and on and on, I wish they just did math drills instead because the vast majority of what you read never ends up being useful.
>>221734656>What we learn in school is beyond barebones. I'd venture to say most, if not all, of us beaners are self-taught.I literally learned English with Runescape, YouTube and 4chan. If it were only for public school I wouldn't know English today.>>221734624Peaceful balkanization is the best possible outcome you could hope for at this point.Sadly, it's the least likely. The ruling class won't let states become independent without rivers of blood.
>>221734707I beg to differ. Literature might not seem overly useful until one gets to be a prick. Words like strumpet, philistine, sodomite or other such outdated insults are great for when you want to present yourself as a pompous prick.
>>221734730>If it were only for public school I wouldn't know English today.Same. We were only taught colours and only the most basic of sentences. Not even one-liners.
>>221727979They speak the worst spanish accent though. Its a mix of italian,galician, spanish and native dialects.
>>221727391This used to be my profile image in github
>>221734508America gets the latinos too retarded to learn a 2nd language
>>221734845Argentinian accents are still superior to disgusting C*b*n or, Allah forgive me for uttering this, Puelto Lican accents
>>221734772Wait until you read turn of the 20th lit and you run into synonyms for common words that are just padding word count. Like sedulous, fastidious, or assiduous. It's fine to be pompous, but the only time I find this acceptable is if I'm reading a dated translation of a classic like Don Quixote. Even 17th century travelogues are easier to read than Joyce and that's with weird orthography and dated vocabulary.
>>221734868trvke, I take the argie or manolo accent any day but caribbean accent is trash
>>221734442>>221734508>>221734578>>221734586chicanos dont speak spanish, any natives speakers who moved will be gone in a generation
also those spanish speakers are the poorest underclass of the country, they're not worth targetingspanish is basically dalit-speak in america
>>221734969Cope. Assimilation happened because these people immigrated in small enough numbers that it was possible to convert them into English speakers.This time, due to their sheer numbers, is actually different. The US system can't assimilate this many people in one generation, and they're starting to get their education and services in Spanish too.I'm not even gloating about it, I legit feel sad for Anglo-Americans, but you seriously need to get real.
>>221734954Con el céfiro viento me hallo de acuerdo con su merced.
>>221734997Cope, you're just desperate for revenge because we cucked you out of your empire along with franceyou're up seething at 3am on a saturday about americahispanics are the lowest of the low in this country, below even blacks. They're not of anyones interest to targetand we've cucked a bunch of them into voting republican kek
>>221734933>sedulous, fastidious, or assiduous.Pretty sure those are still in common parlance, at least among Bongs. Others such as cromulent, perhaps less so as it isn't even getting picked by the autocorrect. Regardless, the only author I have ever found exceedingly "fluffy" is Lovecraft, likely due to his use of an overly verbose prose to try to hide the fact that he was utterly oblivious as to how normal human beings behave.
Reminder that on top of the 500k pakistanis spain just allowed to stay forever that Europe will be getting millions if not tens of millions of indians all because trump raised H1B fees to 6 figures
>>221734992>>221735016American libtards used to think just like you. That Hispanics are and will remain a cheap slave labor underclass forever. Which is simply not the case.The reality is that even if at first they end up taking the shittiest, lowest paid jobs, they are gradually branching out into higher paid professions and displacing native workers.First generation may be something very low class like unskilled construction, farm hand or whatever. Second generation might get into the trades, be a mechanic, plumber, electrician. Many will decide to start their own companies instead of working for an Anglo Boomer and make enough to break into middle-upper class.Third generation might start breaking into higher prestige occupations or expand the family business. Social mobility will increase with each generation.>and we've cucked a bunch of them into voting republican kekAnd the Republican Party is cucking the Anglo-Americans and starting to pander to Hispanic interests.
>>221735081delusional
>>221735081>and starting to pander to Hispanic interests.such as deporting hispanics?
>>221727884You are already latinx now
>>221735146For fuck's sake. Just say beaner or spic. It is less degrading.
>>221735200>21 MILLION Hispanicsnever happenedi guess moors are desperate to believe america is doomed o algo keki can't imagine what kind of a subhuman you must be to be seething in the middle of the night about this kekget some sleep, you have to serve beeros to my nw european cousins today
>>221735211If this kinda shit flinging makes you happy, okay. Just telling you that pride comes before the fall.It's true that I'm kinda wasting my time here because I have insomnia (5:30AM here).This conversation was truly enlightening o algo, señor. Have fun.
>>221735200>I could argue that the feats of conquest and exploration of Spain are actually a much greater accomplishmentCould you? Every place Spaniards colonized is a backwards, impoverished shithole.
>>221735211It's even worse than that>As of 2024, the Hispanic or Latino population in the United States reached approximately 68 million people, representing about 20% of the total U.S. population. This figure reflects a significant increase from 2020, when the population was estimated at 62.1 million, driven largely by immigration
>>221735245The great majority of places Anglos and French colonized also turned out to be shitholes.For every nice first world country that's a result of their colonialism there's a dozen other places like Bangladesh, India or an African shithole country.Many Latin American countries are safer than most major American cities. It's not like 20 years ago anymore. US cities are full of drug addict zombies, homeless tents, and the worst degeneracy imaginable.Saying that they're better off or "richer" due to metrics like GDP is completely braindead. It's like saying that they're "richer" because they print more money, own nothing, and have to earn & spend more money to survive.>>221735280Don't even bother, he's high as hell on MIGA-brand copium.
>>221735316All places Spaniards colonized turned into shitholes and failed pseudocommie stares (much like Spain itself today). All of them. There are no exceptions. I'll concede France, but Britain spawned a handful of decent countries.
>>221735316>there's a dozen other places like Bangladesh, India or an African shithole country.Those countries are full of indians and africans. Any empire could colonize those lands and they'd still be shitholes. >Many Latin American countries are safer than most major American citiesWe have our issues with homelessness in the U.S.A, but nowhere here is comparable to the stuff going on with cartels down in Latin America
Unable to take revenge after 800 years of north african rape. I'd be angry too.
>>221735316>being a shithole is good actuallykek
>>221735363>Spain>Colonizing Brazil
The real blackpill is that Catholicism is the cause of Latin America being such a shithole
>>221735391Hardly. Spaniards only created extraction systems and built absolutely nothing of value. The ensuing demographic centers and unequal distribution of wealth coupled with nonexistent systems of governance ensured LATAM would forever remain a shithole. Consequentially, when the gravy train ended Spain went from a player of The Great Game to just another dysfunctional, impoverished, minor state.We could have been Zoroastrians and it wouldn't undo the sheer mismanagement. Just look at Bavaria, they are Catholics and aren't this dysfunctional.
>>221735499iberians really think being paypiggies of the vatican was a good thingitaly could not have asked for better slaves
>>221735531You could argue they got their money's worth during the civil war. Because if Italy hadn't helped them then they'd be an even more dysfunctional commie shithole than today.
>>221735558>civil waryeah about that>World War with eternal repercussions between every race and creed on the planet? Whatever i dont care gringos. I'm tired every since france and america took my empire away.>what??? diego from a village 10km away wants to take TWO siestas a day instead of just one?>COMMIE SCUM O ALGO>I will now commence to tear my country apart, kill my own people and send moors to rape my own women to defend the anglo-judaic practice of (((capitalism))) despite spending almost all of my history fighting against them because it's in my nature and blood as an iberian to live and die in the interest of foreign rulersWhy did spain do it?
>>221735499>Spaniards only created extraction systems and built absolutely nothing of valueRight, and they did all that because they're Catholics.
>>221735499>Just look at Bavaria, they are Catholics and aren't this dysfunctional.They're only functional because superior protestant Prussians conquered and subdued them
>>221727391Go back
>>221735577>Why did spain do it?Because syndicalism and anarcho-communism working in tandem is a civilizational threat the likes of which you'll never experience. The only thing that's baffling is that they didn't exterminate every single commie.
>>221735499>Spaniards only created extraction systems and built absolutely nothing of value.Absolutely untrue.
>>221727391I don't think latinx care if we speak it or think about us at all
>>221735611>>221735499bavaria is rich because of ameribux after ww2you might as well point to ireland's gdp
>>221735654It's not only true. It's visible from space.
North America literally has the most populous Spanish-speaking country in the world.North America begins in Iceland and ends at the Panama Canal.

>>221727979>FlagYou are seething in your favela
>>221734539why the fuck would I want to learn your language after you just said something like that to me? do you people have no tact?
>>221736059You live in a latin american country now it's only fair you learn the national languageThis is not up for negotiation you will submit
>>221736059To be useful to your masters and be spared due to your usefulness during the conquista o algo

>>221736086I consider you a hostile invader, an enemy. I will never learn anything that associates me with you. everything you represent must be suppressed or destroyed outright.
>>221736169>Burgers aren't smart enough for know your enemy and know yourself Stop that or you'll cease to exist, seriously
>>221734845True, i can understand Mexicans, Spaniards and even Colombians pretty well, but argensimios seem to speak another language, they also use a bunch of weird words like che all the time. >>221736050seething vilero
>>221736219Turn off the VPN João, it's too late you outed yourself here>>221727979
>>221736193you don't need to know your enemy's language to know their strategy. you only need to know their language if you want to know them. I care not.
>>221736169You are in no position to make demands it's not your country any more
argentina having a melty
>>221736240Boca will be eliminated at group stagesRiver will lost to the first BR team they face it's over for simios, another year of Brazilian domination at futchibol
>>221736271what demands? how about you learn English, idiot.
>>221736250Everyone will always have an advantage over you, specially in this new type of demographic gorilla warfare
>>221736292Once we are the vast majority you will have to learn our language regardless of what you want. More and more stores will cease even putting signs in english. Resistance is futileAgain you are now the minority so it's time you gain some humility and cease making demands
>we will replace you grin-ACK
>>221736331It's going to be a 2 tier society. The underclass will speak Spanish and the elites English.
telling americans they will have to learn spanish is like telling the spanish they'll have to learn native american languages kekyou're the permanent underclass and you're below replacement
>>221736331I will fight you at every turn, I will sabotage you until there are no tools left to sabotage with.
