Though if you are planning to close it and need another country to look after the Argentinian citizens in the UK, can I suggest the Chileans who are well regarded and get taken more seriously than others in the region.
@5 You are quite right about the strategic purpose but this is because the Embajadora is useless - all she does is provoke British ire due to her posturing.

So the Argentine government didn't make Spanish the official language of the Patagonian Welsh then? Where was the choice?
“The turn of the century also marked a change in attitude by the Argentine government who stepped in to impose direct rule on the colony. This brought the speaking of Welsh at local government level and in the schools to an abrupt end. The Welsh utopian dream of Michael D Jones appeared to be disintegrating.”

you do not learn languages or whatever just for practical reasons.
you learn them as part of your education, formation, to improve your general culture, etc.
spanish is the 3rd most spoken language worldwide.
almost all latin america speaks spanish.
guess you need to learn it if you want the islets to be integrated with the rest of south america.
Except for Brazil, Belize, Surinam, Guyana, French Guyana and of course the regional military super power, Las Malvinas, which I’m told learn Chilean Spanish.

English is an official language in Chile which is an enlightened and realistic country. Spanish is dying all over the world. English language schools are everywhere, its the language of the air and sea. Spanish is widely spoken amongst waiters though. In the UK we have dedicated TV channels for the Gaelic in Scotland and a Welsh language TV channel too, these languages are far from dying. Do Argentina have Indigenous TV channels , NO! Why? Because most of them were slaughtered 100 years ago by Spanish/Italian troops.

Heavens, I even learned some Afrikaans, Swahili and some West Indian patois. However, my experience was that everyone wanted to speak English ...except the French !
#49
As usual, you are being rather selective and parochial.
The first recorded rudimentary steam engine being the aeolipile described by Greek mathematician Hero of Alexandria. Then there were several others in on the act, building and improving on previous designs.
You are correct about Jeronimo. However the steam engine only became a viable machine when Watt added a steam condenser paving the way for steam engines to power the industrial revolution. Further BRITISH inventors made more and more improvements to the steam engine allowing its use to power factories and ships giving the UK a world domination in this field....and Spain did what ?
You have inadvertently explained why English is the predominant language. Where a new invention or machine is made, it makes up a word using Greek or Latin to name it...television, telescope, phonograph or borrows it from another language.
I am at a loss to understand what you are on about with the word tractor. Yes, it is from a Latin source, so what ? English is a language which has developed from a Germanic route to Anglo Saxon borrowing heavily from Latin ,romance languages, Norse,Welsh, Dutch and just about every language known,
Spanish developed from dog Latin and Arabic and who knows what else.
Are you looking for racial purity of speech? It does not exist.
It was a WELSH INVENTION BACH :-) Same as us Welsh got to the Americas 1st, long before the Vikings or that man Columbus (did you know his nan was Welsh?) or the English.

A Russian spy goes to a small town in Wales to meet his Welsh contact whose name is Jones(yes l know!)
The password is:- “There is snow tonight on Barry Mountains”
As the spy gets off the train, he sees the Station Master & in a gutteral Russian accent(which l can do very well) asks him if he knows Mr Jones.
The Station Master replies, ”well let me see now,
Theres Jones the Milk,
Theres Jones the Bus,
Theres Jones the Bread,
Theres Jones the Police,
Theres Jones the shoeshop(made that one up!)
etc etc etc.“
Frustrated the Russian spy decides to use the password on the Station Master,

Correct, but here in Uruguay and even more so south of the Plate that would be the 1860’s and the 1870’s at best.
It also amuses me that Espanol is “policed” by Spain itself as far as the local Espanol teachers are concerned. Even if a change to the language has been in place for many years they can only teach it when it appears in the document of this policing body, the name of which I have forgotten.

This event at the embassy was simply a pathetic attempt at implying that if the Falklands were ever administered by Argentina , the Kelpers culture and traditions would be respected , after all they would say “ Look at the way the Welsh community in Chubut maintains it's tradition and language , we would do the same on the Malvinas ”.

Furthermore, the K administration has worked wonders for the Argentine economy and the only reason that other administrations and international entities complain about it is that it is no longer business as usual for them in Argentina to do and undo as they please. That change includes the K Malvinas policy and it is only requesting that London obey UN resolutions and sit down to dialog the issue. London's refusal to do so is truly pathetic.

Under these conditions, many would argue the most appropriate responses to Argentina all end in “off”, but this hasn't prevented the British Foreign Office form attempting dialogue in the past, or indeed from inviting Timerman in for a discussion as recently as March 2013.
In the former case, as we all know, the only outcome was the 1982 invasion when Argentina found it wasn't getting its own way, and in the second case Timerman missed out on tea and biscuits because he would have been obliged to face representatives of the people whose homes he wishes to seize.

Bonarda has come a long way on it's own recently. Most people drink it at least in part because it is used to give other wines (Malbec typical example) a darker richer colour. Bonarda is inky black. It's not my favourite but if done right it still makes a fine wine.
Not sure I could even ask for a Concha y toro here. I could be arrested....
Toy Sexpest first mentioned sexual orientation on a another thread. The very ILL SON came in kicking and screaming to help his “friend” out for no particular reason. So I figure if they want to try and bully and silence me I can bully them straight back. Now THEY cry foul. Hypocrites.
Still a least we're getting closer to ILL SON's real persona.
All's fair in Love and War.....

Paul,
I don't use sexual orientation to insult people.
If you are not lying, you are confused or mis- read the post.
Please show me where.

Why could you be arrested if you asked for Concha y Toro in your neck of the woods? Because one of the words is rude in River Plate Spanish or because it's the competition from over the Cordillera?
I much prefer discussing wine than people's sexual orientation.

Anyone here already knows that I am British and that I split my time between Venezuela and London due to family and business reasons. Any serious stalkers would know that I have a BA in Latin American History and Politics and a Masters in Lat Am Economics. They would also know that I have studied at least one Lat Am University. Not hard to guess if you actually had read some of my previous posts.
Regular visitors to this site also know that I post serious comments about serious issues and also absolutely love to rip the piss out of non-news articles such as the stupid BBQ that no-one in England ever heard about.
They also know that I do enjoy a little troll-hunt on a quiet news day. Using wit, humour and my vastly superior (to you), intellect, I do enjoy exposing nasty racist, homophobic, misygonic, sexist fools.
Like you.

Thank you for your post. These people's childish behaviour needs a check.
Also, I am about to uncork a Rioja Faustino II that I have had for a while. Not the best, but will suffice for tonight!
