Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth proudly and embarrassingly declared that he only "speaks American" while in a room filled with leaders from Latin America.

      England? Well there was Cornish and Manx. Cornish went extinct in the 18th century but the last monoglot speaker died in the 17th century.

      I am not counting Welsh since that is in Wales… And Scots Gaelic is in Scotland, its own country.

        The Scots and Irish keep Gaelic alive just to piss off the British.
