The issue with making Official lists, there are always those who say, "what about us?" LGBTqIA+++ ever growing alphabet is an example of this. So if Florida does this, then what about the other communities of folks who speak another native language? Would this mean that Spanish would be a requirement for all students in school?
I get it that there are many people who speak Spanish only and it's difficult. My grandmother came here from Germany and spoke what we called Ganglish. She could not read nor write English. She could write Ganglish though, LOL. It was difficult and my mother and I had to help her with mail and everything because of this so I get it. However, she would have been better off learning English than NY deciding make German an official state language.
It's funny that you say that, because in the State of Florida we've actually had a poll that asked if Spanish should be required to learn in school. In that poll around 60 to 65% supported the idea. Making Spanish one of the official languages was not a part of this poll.
Now, as for your concern regarding other people wanting their language as one of the official languages, I do see that happening, however, there won't be that much support for other language groups whether European or indigenous American. Spanish is spoken between 20 to 25% (likely higher) of the Floridian populace, while languages such as French and Portuguese are less than 10% together.
Thanks for your comments; I'll definitely consider including it in my article.
