         <description><![CDATA[<p>I learned that there are multiple languages in the US and in general, there is never one true language in a country.

         <description><![CDATA[<p>I learned that a national language makes a country unique and respectable as said in the text, and I agree. A country having it's own language makes it unique and interesting in the sea of 194 other countries in the world. I think that is important because it makes it easier to communicate in said country if it has one main language.</p>]]></description>
