Having the website that gives information about your governship be available to be read in Spanish is definitely justified for the over 40 million people that speak it In fact, I'd wager that something as important as this can definitely be translated in multiple languages regardless of population. 2 minutes ago, Goosey said: Only one: English.

Every or most countries have one or more official languages that are used within government and authorities but Goosey isn't completely right.

But don't favor Spanish specifically. spanish is the second most common language in the US with about 37.5 million speakers (Chinese 3rd with 2.8 million) according to the US census bureau with info obtained in 2011. that's why it's always listed second when you're choosing a language choice in the us, usually reading 1. English 2. Spanish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
