Interesting article. It really brings home how basic linguistic communication can bring people together. My wife and I have lived in Europe and Asia for 10 years now. I mention this in connection with the fact that the most well funded public schools in the world (DODEA) do not have any program that emphasizes host nation linguistics. Not only would such a program foster cultural understanding, it could have the potential to create a complete shift in the way Americans are perceived overseas. The major stumbling block to this the juggernaut of a teachers union and the dinosaurs it protects.
