Es un país que sólo tiene un idioma, y por lo general no le gustan otros idiomas. La verdad es que los estadounidenses creen que todos los latinoamericanos son iguales porque hablan el mismo idioma. La mayoría de estadounidenses piensa en mejicanos cuando ellos oyen castellano y no saben que hay mucha diferencia entre Méjico y el resto del mundo hispanoparlante (tal vez con excepción de España). Es triste pero es así. Espero haberte ayudado. Para entender la respuesta, necesitas entender los EEUU. Es un país que sólo tiene un idioma, y por lo general no le gustan otros idiomas.
