always curious when I see discenters posting signs NOT in their
native language, but in English so the American audience can see.

This is a mosque in Sweden, why isn't the writing over her front
in Swedish? Or, Arabic? So the local residents can understand? Or,
is English so prevalent in Sweden that she knows EVERYBODY can read
the message?

Q1. What do you call a person who knows three languages? A1.
Trilingual.

Q2. What do you call a person who knows two languages? A2.
Bilingual.

Q3. What do you call a person who knows only one language? A3.
American. (British, Australian, and French are acceptable alternative
answers.)


I read recently that more than 50% of the population of some European
countries are trilingual.

How many countries are there in/on The North America Continent? How many
countries are there squished together in Continental Europe? There are
states in The United States that are larger than many European countries
and The United States doesn't have that many countries within a few
hours of driving time in an automobile. So why on Earth would Americans
find it necessary to speak anything other than American English? Apples
and oranges. ^_^
