Mrs G Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 I've seen job ads that the ad specifically said "Must be Bi-lingual" Link to post Share on other sites
surepip Posted February 20, 2010 Report Share Posted February 20, 2010 Both of our kids are bilingual. They attended a language school in Cuernavaca Morelos Mexico the summers when they were 14, 15, and 16. Daughter ended up as a courtroom translator for several years and is married now to a young man from Mexico. She is more fluent in Spanish than English. Son can still carry on conversations in Spanish but really does not use his anything like his sister does. I can speak Spanish, and do OK with my customers on anything technical, but I cannot conjugate properly. Link to post Share on other sites
