I don't find that to be a bad thing
^^ at least they can understand a few words.. thats good enuf.. alot of people can only speak and understand one languages.. 台湾人不算差啦!
Oh puh-lease.
If a Taiwanese has a job that requires him or her to deal with English-speaking clients, then of course they should learn English. But why should the average Taiwanese know English at all? Just so some inconsiderate lost American tourist can find his way back to the hotel?
It's people like you why some Americans expect the whole world to speak their language...
hno:BTW, just in case you didn't notice, I wasn't really looking for an answer, I was making the point that Taiwanese (or citizens of any non-English speaking country for that matter) should NOT be expected to speak English. No one ever voted for English to be the international language. It only became that way because of nearly 300 years of English dominance over the world from the British Empire to the American one... Like I said, if you want to make money from English-speaking clients, you'd better know English, but if you don't, there is no reason to learn it at all.
OH PUHLEEEEEZE. no one is saying "the average taiwanese" like your betal nut chewing taxi driver or prostitute selling betal nuts or your vendors selling tso tofu should learn english and no one is forcing them to learn english. but i'm sure most taiwanese parents don't wish their kids to become those kinds of average taiwanese. most probably want their kids to be a working white collar professional in a high paying job like finance or law or even in the hi-tech fields, in which case english skills would probably be required or preferred. and if taiwan is to compete with other countries in these industries and attract foreign capital investment and foreign white-collar professionals to help them develop their industries like finance, then they need a labor pool that can speak english. capisce????????????Oh puh-lease.
