Should we have signs and  and instructions always containing spanish also?

Not as anything but a courtesy.

I would have to say why not? But it would be important to limit the commercial to radio channels that have a Spanish audience. Other wise it might be a waste of funds to the one trying to get a good message across.

For the whole Bible in Spanish, try: http://www.catholichouse.net/index.cgi?realm=Bible&page=Spanish+Bible\n\nWith love in Christ.

a-mazed, \n\nHere is my take. Anyone who is multi-lingual is also likely to be a more rounded, more tolerant, person. So the Spanish I pick up from reading food packages helps me in many ways.\n\nI know that Canadian packaging includes French and English. Most electronic instruction manuals have several languages. I like that, as simply seeing that other cultures exist helps me with my tendency to think of my way as superior - which is not reality.\n\nAll of this is written by a guy who flunked Latin in the seventh grade and learned only a dozen or so Spanish words during 27 years of intense exposure to the Spanish culture - but thanks for the opportunity to vent, and for 2 points.\n\nSo, IMHO, the bi-lingual food labels "teach tolerance" to those who object, and "teach language" to everyone -  we have the Rosetta Stone on a soup can!

English is the offical language... but this being a free country they do not require you to learn it... it would go against certin rights if they required it... but I do agree with you that everyone should need to know at least the basics... I hate being asked "ah spanish?"\n\nGets very nerve racking....

There are books that do this.  A famous one that a lot of people use is "101 Spanish Verbs".

I was born in this country.  I speak English.  In order to communicate we need a common language.  When a bunch of illegalmexican immigrants comes in and refuse to speak English there is no reason why we should cater to them and change everything to Spanish.  This is positively absurd, and I am sick and tired of having to press 1 for English.  The illegalmexican immigrants will not dictate to me that I now have to read Spanish everywhere.\n\nThe time has come to actively campaign against them and to fight aginst them.

Of course it is.  I mean, it's just like how J.K. Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books based on the movies; but she decided to add a bunch of other stuff that wasn't included in the movies.  The same thing for the alphabet--someone decided to sing a song, and then write down the letters to form the alphabet. Um...no...\n\nThe Phoenicians made a written alphabet for their spoken languages as a means to keep records of their trading.  Our alphabet and the Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Cyrillic and many other languages too.\n\nEdit: \nTo the person above me: it was based on Latin, yes, but where do you think Latin was based on?

Contracts that are legally binding by law are valid regardless of what language they are written in. There are other requirements for a contract to be binding (i.e., both parties must have consented, and have the ability to consent under the law) yet language doesn't affect the binding nature of valid contracts legally entered into by both parties.  Yet for them to be submitted to a court that would require that the contract meet any guidelines established by the Courts in the jurisdiction. This may be that they be in English. If that's the case they would have to be translated, and most the translation will have to be notarized.

The order of the signs depends on what you are saying. There are several sentence structures, just like English has several sentence structures. You need to make sure that the signs are in the right order, that your facial grammar is correct, along with any other non-manuals that are required for the sentence to make sense. \n\nTaking a class would be a good idea.
