Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the phenomenon of bilingualism. The paper examines the Spanish-speaking, Puerto Rican population of America. The paper explores the option of the United States becoming officially bilingual. The paper presents several controversies that surround the issue of whether the United States should be officially bilingual or not.

From the Paper:

"Americans can see some effects of bilingualism as official policy by looking at the packaging of many things sold in the United States, because much of that packaging already contains two languages -- English and French. This is because Canada is officially bilingual, and anything sold in Canada must be labeled in both languages. First examination of this marketing practice suggests that recognizing the presence of two languages in a country may be good for business, as people speaking both languages can shop with ease."
