If you had a magic wand, would you make everybody speak English and kill off all other languages?

[Tooting Carmen]

A few weeks ago, Portuguese user Cernunnos asked if you'd make everyone in the world turn White with a magic wand, so now I am asking a similar question but regarding language this time.

[Valwar]

Lol, absolutely not.

[Satem]

Making everybody speak english wouldn't have sense because each group could make their own slang

[gıulıoımpa]

No, i would make everybody speak latin



also: title reminded me of this song

[nittionia]

I would make everyone not speak

[Tooting Carmen]

Btw, I would never actually advocate such a thing myself. Just wondered what others thought.

[Morena]

No, the world would be boring. I always thought a fun wish would be to become fluent in the most important languages, including German, Italian, Greek, etc. I made a list of about twenty languages. But because genies are very tricky, I would have to add English and Spanish otherwise, he would make me forget them.

So, maybe if I had a magic wand I would make myself learn all those languages instead of making everyone else learn mine?

[Regnera]

Nope
I'd rather have a magic wand which make me understand all languages.Just like some heroes from fairy tales.

[Dna8]

Most definitely not.. In the end we will need Beauty to save the world, after all..

Why??? Languages are CULTURE and must be preserved.
