In the above post, it is mentioned, albeit in humour, to "speak American or get out". What is it to speak American?
As far as i know, there are 311 different languages spoken in the USA and Canada; that is 310 more languages than the moderator admits he is able to speak or read. As a matter of fact, 60% of the world's population speak more than one language, I myself can fluently read, speak and write English, French and Yiddish.
You picked up the humorous intent, but I think you missed my point. I know the language is English and not American. The point I was trying to make was that I'm not trying to be some ignorant American that demands everyone else operate on my wavelength.
