Re: Gustav, you need to make a decision. Either the US erases all cultural differences, including language, or it doesn't. You are trying to have it both ways here...

Wrong. I'm merely showing you that the US is gradually experiencing/discovering genuine multiculturalism à la Europe.... It's quite funny, from a European perspective, to watch Americans' frustration and anxiety about "bilingualism"...

Suppose you're driving down a Belgian highway, you're currently somewhere between Antwerp and Ghent and your destination is Lille in France. So you keep watching for the signpost "Lille" which you'll never find because "Lille" translates as "Rijsel" in Dutch.... and you'll keep driving round and round and round... Same with Mons/Bergen, Namur/Namen,....
