The United States is mainly an English-speaking country. A great number of population speaks English as their native language. Business, education and most public aspects of life are conducted in English. Across the country, people pronounce English sounds in several different ways and some regional differences in words spelling exist, but for the most parts, Americans speak one common language. This language is sometimes called American English.However, not everyone in the US is a native speaker of English. Most of the persons coming into the country are speakers of other languages. There are hundreds of communities around the US where the US where English is not the most commonly used language. Chinese, Italian, German, Greek, Vietnamese and French are all spoken in a great number of communities in the United States. Spanish is the second most commonly spoken language after English in the US. It is widely spoken in New York and across the southern part of the country.For speakers of other languages, learning English is important, but traditionally, teaching people to speak English as a second language was given little attention. Non-English speakers were expected to "pick up" the language through getting in touch with people in public. Recently, this has changed. Today, most large public schools and community colleges have ESL(English as a Second Language)programs. American丶丶丶丶
