if i can pick up enough spanish in a few days to get me by when in spain ime pretty sure somone coming to live here can learn enough english
granted i only learned the words for please , thankyou , hello , goodbye , chemist , pub , ciggrettes and a few other esentials when on holiday but the locals seemed very happy to help and appreciated the effort even if i did look like a retard waving my hands about trying to mime what i wanted if i couldnt get the words right lol
over there they have a brand of condom called RETARD - condomisio and i am glad i didnt have to mime that one
seriously though if people are coming to work here they shoud have basic knowledge of the language for health and safety reasons if anything because of safety signs in the work place etc
