Trying to get people off of writing about anything on the Help the Needy thread. Thought I would try with my friendly reindeer's comment  regarding total of speakers of Spanish or English,in this wonderful world of ours. I will concede that Spainish is the native tongue, for more people,than what English is. But English is spoken by more than 200,000,000 people more than what Spanish is. Also, I don't know of any person from the U:S:A: who would say that there language was American/English. I have only ever heard them say that they speak English, to me that means any spelling differences don't matter a jot, the same word comes out of the mouth.
