If you come to the US, you should learn English. Growing up in South Florida, it was frustrating to walk into a store at the mall and have the employees not be able to conversate with you. There were numerous occasions where an employee had to get their manager to help them because they weren't able to answer a simple question from me. They were only trained to ring something up....anything more than that caused blank stares. I'll bet these employees still haven't learned English. Why? Because they don't have to. The Americans have catered to them by putting signs up in their language, learning some of their language, etc. The South Florida newspapers constantly did stories on the immigrants from Spanish countries who were quoted as saying, "Why bother learning Engligh? It's unnecessary."
When my family moved to Japan for 2 years, my parents took Japanese language courses and I was taught Japanese at my school. We didn't expect the Japanese to cater to us.
