When my mother was an academic dean at Harvard in the 90’s she attended a faculty meeting where the great minds were debating how much to spend to add a curriculum in Urdu to the foreign languages department. The proponents argued that half a billion people speak Urdu. My mother commented: “Isn’t that enough?” The measure was dropped.

If Republicans had brains they'd make an ad of this but then never do anything, re: the Senate with the SAVE America act, supported by 80%.

Looks like my monthly medical report. Last 2 pages are just like that!

Exactly. I thought I was reading my explanation of benefits

No company does that voluntarily. A government regulation must require it. It’s another way government regulations drive up costs with no benefit.

Well, that message is a fairly decent indicator that you are one of the few actually making premium payments.

I just wish my Chinese and Swahili were better. My Dr’s are not native speakers.

But no one can criticize our empathy for all earthlings! When terrestrial aliens are found our insurance companies will be the first to add their language to these pages🤪🤪!!

Multilingual societies can survive if they are monocultural. Multilingual and multicultural will not.

My faith is Ann Coulter is shattered!

Ann, you mean you have been so xenophobic, racist and Eurocentric (really Anglocentric - even worse) that you have stubbornly disrespected the speakers of these 14 languages by not learning how to speak to them in their native tongues?

I am appalled. This is SO blatant an act of institutional, systemic racism as to rise to the level of psychological VIOLENCE.

I'm calling the SPLC and the FBI right now.

Pack your toothbrush, racist!

You're going to jail.

I think the first time I saw her was on MSNBC. Or Fox News. 1996 or 1997. Loved her ever since.

If only there was a place where they could all easily navigate society, culture, business, healthcare, etc. because EVERYTHING was in their own language...

There is only one thing to do: find another language and write to them in it so they have to find a translator and complain that they do not use it! 😂🤣

This is HILARIOUS.

I thought about translating some of this but then I figured it was a waste of time. I am certain there is an attorney behind this somewhere..

You would think especially with AI on the horizon that they would know what language each user needs but let’s spend money on ink and paper!
