fluent doesn't mean passing all the levels on duolingo
A president doesn't need it. Anyone can be his translator.
What happend between Roosevelt and Carter?
also non of them spoke English????
>Spanish, Italian, French, Latin
basically 1 language
You can actually tell when corporate interests started dumbing down the population here.
t. brainlet who hasn't learned any of those
I highly doubt these niggas could speak fluent Latin
>What happend between Roosevelt and Carter?
The missing presidents either spoke only English or there's no source to show they spoke anything else.
>A president doesn't need it. Anyone can be his translator.
You can say that about anyone.
I've got 320 IQ and am fluent in all languages.
they probably studied them (greek and latin) but without constant practice you forget them very quickly
It's true that head of states generally use interpreters. But sometimes, it helps improve their image if they know foreign languages. Like how Putin speaks German and has spoken in front of the German parliament before.. great guy. You wouldn't see Trump speaking Spanish in Mexico.
most highly educated people back then learned latin and greek, dont be jealous
If you're Polish, you can only be 32 IQ at most.
>partial
so they probably spoke a sentence of it once
>polish intellectuals
Why do US presidents even matter?

So when American presidents stopped talking Greek and Latin the country went to shit.
It really shows why culture is important. People were actually educated in the US in the 19th century. What went wrong?
executive branch became too powerful
o op*
How much Greek and Latin does Macron know?
You can learn Greek and especially Latin in every high school here though
France has always been shet. Nothing new about that.
If you don't speak Greek AND Latin you shouldn't be allowed to become president tbqh
It's no surprise that a scholar like Jefferson learned so many languages
We're getting dumber in Europe as well, there is no doubt about that. We're just late compared to Americans.
>partial indonesian
what ?
Proof Roosevelt was the original brainlet who doomed the whole lineage
Latin was the language used for law and a lot of them were lawyers. Also I believe Latin was a requirement for colleges back in that time period.
The polish übermensch
Anyone else remember that Vincente Fox could speak perfectly good English but he insisted on talking with Bush in Spanish with a translator to show how "patriotic" he was?
Είσαι πούστης.
so deep
Correct. Latin and Greek were mandatory in higher education back then.
Now I know this is gonna piss a lot of people off but I'm just gonna say it; manifest destiny and industrialization ruined America.
Obama went to school at a madrassa in Indonesia after his mom rebelled against her parents for a second time
his stepdad was indonesian and he lived there
>no US president was fluent in an other language since 1945
wtf
>同性愛者
We don’t say that really. Usually “gay” or “les” or “bian”.
>bian
lol yes I know Japanese are autistic.
English speaking countries are the only ones that can actually get by with only knowing 1 language their whole lives.
they would have been able to read and write it, politicians were well educated in those days
Next president will be fluent in Spanish. I think the first president that won't be natively fluent in English will be elected in less than 20 years.
Today Oprah Winfrey is seen as a potential candidate.... This is America.
>first president
read OP image again
lmaoo drumpf is a fucking retard who can't even speak english
>ywn you were never taught Latin and Greek in school from an early age
>ywn you were never
Okay yeah, time for bed
Why are Americans so cucked anyway? No other country would willingly teach their children the language of their invadors (Spanish)
they just keep getting dumber
The absolute state of ameriglobos
The presidents who speak only English are not included in that list. It's obvious Trump doesn't speak anything else.
>won't be natively fluent in English will be elected in less than 20 years
Immigrants and illegals cant be president.
>the language of their invadors
The invaders were the wh*toids
Obama already disproved that one.
>Why are Americans so cucked anyway? No other country would willingly teach their children the language of their invadors (Spanish)
We don't I took four years of it and learned nothing. I learned more German in two semesters in college.
>I think the first president that won't be natively fluent in English will be elected in less than 20 years.
more like 200 years ago
There's always the children of immigrants.
>No other country would willingly teach their children the language of their invadors
Then why is your English so good?
you and sweden teach arabic
kill yourself
roosevelt was the last decent US president
rest are dumb fucks or cardboard cutouts from films
what a coincidence
>fluent in all languages.
are you sure mate
khá là chắc kèo
No, we don't teach arabic?
>tfw the British bases are going to go by 2020
>please like me, German overlord
Still cucked
What was John Quincy Adam's duolingo account? I want to see his streak.
If you're fluent, you should really be able to pass all the Duolingo levels.
You can even skip a good chunk of the lessons by taking the placement test. That's what I did with English, i jumped right to the end lessons
what
>το op είναι ομοφυλόφιλος
What you wanted to say: OP is a faggot
What you actually said: the(wrong gender) OR(meaningless acronym) is homosexual(overly formal)
> Indonesia
lol
they arent mandatory though
Le orange man barely speak one language
if you dont mean teddy then you are a retard
He speaks the language of business and deals.
covfefe
Teddy Roosevelt was a motherfucker. Even after his presidency nigga wanted to lead the Rough Riders as a volunteer force into WW1.

Death had to catch him sleeping or else there would've been a fight.
>*literally cuts the americas in half*
What a balla
Not really, there are countries, such as mine, where people rarely go abroad, and foreigners are a rare sight.
You just know they didn't speak Greek or Latin fluently. But they are semigods in American history so everyone pretends it's correct.
>Thomas Jefferson was partial in arabic
saying salam alaykum doesn't mean you can partially speak arabic
Out of curiosity, who was the last French leader fluent in Greek and Latin?
>written in english
Proved my point
such cope
>Tommy Jay
>fluent in Spanish
bullshit
that's just what he claims
he said he learned Spanish from a grammer book and a Don Quixote book in 2 weeks on a trip to France as an ambassador
Long nose people
Probably Chirac.
It is still pretty common in France to study Latin. I did it myself and I'm not going to be president. I wouldn't say I'm fluent, but still it is common to learn how to read and write Latin fluently and some of my former classmates probably continued that far. I was in private school tho.
You underestimate how much certain parts of the world can be isolated.
George Washington was fluent in based and redpilled
they have a statue of hammurabi in the supreme court, wouldnt be surprised if he studied arabic to learn about laws and stuff
Learning Greek and Latin is a fun hobby, nothing more you retards. There's other far more worthwhile languages to learn today.
>private school
>ends up here
lmao I bet your parents hate you
>hammurabi
>arab
