A_ and the Learning of Spanish

I want to preserve the secrecy of the people I write about in the blog, so I am referring to him as A_.

He is an American living in Orosi I met yesterday when I went to buy a chicken burger of their own making. It's delicious! I know enough Spanish and they know enough English, so making this purchase was easy.

A_ watched this going on, but it made him uneasy. He kept repeating the same instructions in English. He seems to feel, if he keeps using his English - everyone down here will start learning English also!
