Human Geo

Today in human geo I learned how that different languages can be a big problem to people and countries. I found out that the Canadian Providence Quebec we thinking about leaving Canada because so many people speak French as there primary language. So they wanted to leave Canada because of it. In South America almost everyone speaks Spanish except the biggest country there, Brazil. They speak Portuguese, a language that is not very popular and the only other country that I know that speaks that language as the first choice is Portugal. Some people get mad when someone speaks a different language to them. So they want everyone to speak English. We also saw this survey on how people in America call that fizzing drink soda, pop, coke or something else. Most southern states call it coke. The Midwestern states call it pop and most east and west coast states call it soda. It was very interesting.
