A buddy of mine is currently going through a divorce. His wife of 7 years is originally from Taiwan. He met her several years back here in Colo Spr. I don't know the specifics, but she and her family got here and then her first husband died.

While not the easiest to understand, she speaks English well enough, BUT... she HAD to have an interpreter for the divorce proceedings - which my buddy expects to pay for. More BS to tax the legal system.

When I got stationed in Korea (South), I got myself into a Korean language class within a few weeks of arrival because I felt it was MY responsibility to learn their language and not the other way around. I'm so offended by the PC concept that we need to adapt to the customs of everyone else.

Oh yeah, and I'm really sick of pressing 1 for English and selecting English as my language @ the ATM!
