"As I have mentioned in other videos, another trend, a worrying one for me is the ever increasing focus on delegates
speaking English in international competitions. More and more pageant finalists and winners in recent years have
been proficient if not fluent in English even when they represent countries where English is not their official
language.
Case in point is the quick chat with Steve Harvey after delegates are announced as Miss Universe semi-finalists. This
has happened in five most recent times Steve has hosted. And you probably know my thoughts on that. Of the 85
women who have done the chat since 2016, not a single one of them has used a translator. One assumes they weren't
made available unlike in other parts of the competition. In some cases it was abundantly clear a non-English delegate,
had rehearsed a pre-prepared answer.

Baka naman the best pakialamaerong bansa. Lahat pinapakialamanan. No wonder western European doesn't like America.
Dear, he’s talking about how our country has intervened too much in wordly affairs to the point that even Europe is worried and annoyed by what is happening here. Your opinion, to be honest, is not good since this language that we speak in here, despite being the lingua franca of this planet, isn’t something to just hail all the time. Let’s give space to other languages too (especially the other European lingua francas, like Spanish and French)! This also goes to pageants. Not all pageants are in English - Miss France, for example, is as French as it can be (and take note that some fans were not liking it when it kept highlighting American musicals in its recent edition).Blanche wrote:mybadname wrote:Blanche wrote:English is the language of the world because the USA is the best country in the world.

I beg your pardon? How do you make some wild accusation about Americans. I'm so tired of the racists in this forum. You are talking about Western Europe? You aren't even speaking any European language, This post was about the English language and I shared my opinion.
