and most of us have no problems whatsoever -

AND if they won't assimilate, which many will not - I see that but it still doesn't bother me...all that much - WOULD IT KILL ANY ONE OF YOU TO LEARN A FEW WORDS IN ANOTHER TONGUE??!??  Language can be soooo fun.....You're all MTs, how do you NOT enjoy language AND if you DO enjoy language - how do you NOT enjoy MANY languages - learning about them, origins of words, MOST WORDS come from the Greek, Latin, French, German......

USA English is a made-up language that came from proper (King's) English and is why it is soooo difficult for most foreigners to LEARN it...yes, our grandparents did learn it, some of our parents even.....but by no means is it PROPER ENGLISH in my mind....

Just ask George Carlin *lol*

and this is just my own opinion so no flames please....not looking to start a war here....

I remember when my child was 8 years old (now 25) she had to see  a pediatric GI MD at Miami Children's Hospital.  When he was done with her, he picked up a phone and dictated a huge report and I was standing there next to him (and I was an MT back then too) and he dictated so fast, I understood nothing of what he said.  I then asked him how do the MTs that do his work comprehend exactly what he just said and he said that they use a format for him.  I'm telling you, not one word was comprehensible.  He's a terrific MD but THE WORST dictator I've ever heard.

just thought I'd share that *lol*
