In my local hospital there are signs in many different languages, but obviously not 84 different languages that Milton Keynes apparently have to cater for.
Can a person sue for racial discrimination if their particular language is omitted? :0)

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Well I don't know about been sued for racial discrimination but I know in my local welfare office there are different languages on signs however obviously not enough as one day I was there one woman was giving out that her native language wasn't on the signs..Which irritated me slightly as she could still navigate her way to the correct desk without any hassle..
I thought english was the only language in the world?
You make a good point Oldgit, since you have time and you are really growing to be quite a considerate person to the disadvantaged here I would suggest that you should offer your benevolent services and follow up any cases that may arise?
May God bless you.

Apparently there are 165 languages spoken in the United States.
I read recently that an estimated 300 million Chinese are learning English. I find it strange that these people, who will probably never leave China, want to learn English but the people who have chosen to live in England cannot be bothered.

I live about 15 miles from MK.
MK is my local hospital.
I don't recognise this characature - It certainly isn't that highly ethnic - if there's been a "huge influx" it's passed me by.
Actually - let's read this again:
*A council is employing 15 times more interpreters*
*Staff are currently in the process of recruiting a further 20 interpreters*
Classic - Mail!

Quote from the piece:
While 10 years ago it was thought enough to provide interpreters for speakers of 12 languages, there are now 105 available, including related services like sign language for the deaf and braille, and English itself
So I guess the interpreters of English to er... English is for Geordies?
