its a slut of a country, it refuses to be tied down an official language.
It prefers to use and abuse loads of languages.

Are you talking about North America, or South America, unless you specifically meant teh United States of America, and in that case it would be English.

this. why would we have an official language, when our country is brought together by different races. not everyone is going to speak the "official language", if we had one.

America is a continent...does Europe have an official language? No. I'm pretty sure the only country that has an official language is Australia.
