I don’t believe anyone should be forced to but I also don’t believe it’s them on the government to bend over backward to accommodate to everyone outside of the most common languages.
@9L6QPX48mos8MO
I think its a bit controversial to say English should be the primary language in Australia while the traditional languages of this country aren't of importance
@9L4D2TR8mos8MO
I believe it shouldn’t be required, but the government should provide free language learning choices.
@9L3YTC28mos8MO
They shouldn't be 'required' or 'forced' but free language learning courses should be available if they are interested.
@9KHBPKF9mos9MO
they should not be required to learn it, they should only learn it when they decide that they need to, for jobs or other things, not because the government forces them to when they don't need to yet. the government should also provide free language learning courses to immigrants who need it and arent well off.
@9KD5WJV9mos9MO
they should be speaking English in a predominantly English speaking country. but they should be allowed to speak there own language if they want to
@9KB69QM9mos9MO
I don't think they should be made to learn English, but I do believe that is should be recommended to help the immigrants assimilate, and as such government should provide free language learning courses.
@9K7ZDJR9mos9MO
No, this should be purely based on the individual's comfortability with learning a new language. For obvious reasons, it would be highly effective to learn the main language of ANY country as to better navigate and access that area's atmosphere and culture. However, it is entirely subjective. If one does not want to learn the language - for example, English - then that is entirely up to their own vices.
