I'm an Englishman. We invented English so that everyone could learn just one language and not have to bother about dozens of different jibber-jabber sounding foreign lingo's. Over the past two centuries we've got pretty close to our aim of making English the universal language. We do however have a plan B for dealing with those people who are just plain awkward and insist on hanging on to their local regional dialects - speak louder and louder until they understand and gesticulate a lot. :lol:
