Old joke: What do you call a person who speaks two languages? "Bilingual" How 'bout one who can speak three languages" "Trilingual" Or multi-languages? If you said 'French", you get half credit (because they've been conquered so often). But, the correct answer is "multi-lingual." What do you call a person who only speaks one language? An American.
