Salon de Espanol ???

[samintx]

I don't quite understand why the grade school near me is putting up an extra building and the sign over the lintel is Salon de Espanol. We are not putting up extra classrooms for the immigrants....bilingual ed isn't enuf?

If I have spelled the spanish wrong excuse me, I am not versed in Spanish.

I 'member when some fancy-pants resturant with a forrin name opened up in our town. We got us some pichforks & torches and we burned that sucker to the ground! Inglish is the langwage hear!

I ferget the name. Somthin like der Weenerschitzel or somthin. Pritnshus liberuls!

To bad the rest of the mall burned down to.

You can reasonably expect that it is a language instructional classroom. Most schools teach spanish as a second language these days. Some are teaching Chinese.

It used to be French and German.

That just means Spanish Room. I agree that is most likely a new Spanish classroom. I am pleased to say that my daughter is taking her fifth level of Spanish this year as a senior in high school. Not only will Spanish be helpful for her in this country, but if she travels, she should be able to pick up Italian pretty easily and maybe even French, but why she would want to do that, I have no idea.

Learning a foreign language, especially a Romance language, is always a good idea, IMHO.

no we shouldn't. If someone wants a spanish language mac forum let them open it up themselves.

Maybe we are "themselves."

I have no problem learning a second language. I took French, German and Italian but I do have aproblem if used for illegals NOT learning English !

I also think speaking Spanish means you're illegal, too!
