How do you feel when you hear languages you don't understand, and why do you think you feel that way?

It does not bother or affect me when others speak in their native language

I am not bothered by people speaking languages that I do not know, if anything I am more intrigued by them and wouldn't mind learning more about the language & culture.

I quite enjoy listening to other languages, they sound prettier then english, and flow better. I don't know why I feel this way.

fine, I feel like I have more of a learning potential

I feel unbothered to hear other individuals in society communicate in a language I do not understand. Mainly because it is not my business, and I also have a minority language that I use to communicate with people from my culture.

I feel that it is totally fine and they should be able to do everything that I am able to do whether they speak the same language as me or not.

I feel happy because citizens get to communicate with others in their preferred language rather than just speaking in English with others.

I don't really care... canada is built on immigration so it is expected, though acents can be confusing

i don't feel anything really I notice it but I don't usually think about it

its interesting to see how other people communicate with eachother.

I do not care because I speak a minority language.

Privately fine, but during a group convo is a bit rude.

everyone is entitled to bilingualism and the right to talk in any fashion

I feel that way because those people speaking that language could be making fun of me

I honestly don't care too much about what people speak, if i can speak what language i want then they can too.

I feel akward since I am in a English speaking country and they are not speaking the language they should be speaking here.

i dont feel any different. just use a translator and let them be.

don’t mind unless they’re loud and annoying but that goes for anyone

Sounds cool, I respect they speak their language. 😎

Minority rights should not exist. Equality not equity

i think that a rich culture is needed, so i approve

frankly I do not have an opinion, if it's their native language than I don't think I get to have an opinion.

I don’t mind. Everyone has unique things about them.

Linguistics is extremely important to everyone it doesn't matter where you're from or which language you speak; we're all just humans trying to communicate with one another and I think it's beautiful as well as important.

Jealous I can only speak one language. I enjoy hearing and seeing other people express their culture, as long as it doesn't put others down

I feel nice because it shows that we have freedom to speak in other languages.

as long as they aren’t annoying there is not problem w it

Does not bother me, as long as they are here in Canada legally.

I really do not care because it dose no effect me at all.

i feel nothing because i shouldnt feel anything if i dont understand a language, unless its about something important to me or me myself

I feel happy knowing that a person can speak their own language freely.

I don't really think anything. If I went into another country where I was speaking a language most people didn't know it would be the same thing.

I think it's really cool to think that Canada has so many cultures in it. And when people speak their own language, their expressing their selves.

i dont really care i just try to understand them as best as i can

I don’t mind it at all. I love to hear the differences of languages and hear the diversity of culture in Canada. Our multiculturalism makes us Canada. If it is not a conversation I am in what do I care what language they speak. If they wish to speak to me then they must use English but using another language in public is a separate issue from English competency.

I don’t really feel anything, it’s none of my business what other people are talking about. I wouldn’t care if I could understand them either.

I like diversity. It is good to have a country filled with culture and language.

I believe that people who cannot speak our language should not be allowed to take our jobs, why should someone who cannot understand our language or speak it work in a place of work where it is necessary to understand in order for customer service, when i am buying produce or parts for my car I should be able to understand the person who is selling to me.

I feel very curious and I want to listen more to these languages. I feel that way because as a human, we are responsible to understand and appreciate differences. It is inevitable.

Happy to have diversity in the country, don’t mind hearing other languages.

I am fascinated by foreign languages and always want to know more. I think all cultures and backgrounds are interesting and deserve respect.

i feel fine with hearing other languages and helps with diversity.

It is none of my business when people are talking amongst each other in their own language. Although I do believe in the workplace English should be a requirement considering the first language is English.

i don't mind hearing languages i don't understand i like hearing new languages i haven't heard before.

I think it is important to learn official languages in Canada such as English and French to make communication easier but I have no bias towards someone who can't, but I would encourage learning

I don't feel left alone knowing there's another person who can speak another language

It doesn’t bother me that much but I do think that learning English is important so that minority groups don’t feel more isolated.

I respect, people deserve to speak the way they want.

I am curious on what language it is. I am interested in languages.

I have no particular reaction to other languages and don't really care.

I like to guess what Language they are speaking and what they could be saying, its fun.

I feel unheard and left out, I feel that way because they are communicating in a way i cannot understand

I think other langueges are fine, but we are first a nation of English and French, and these should be manditory for work

i become a little confused because i wonder what they're saying

I enjoy hearing languages I don't understand. It's extremely satisfying to know that people are proud and comfortable of their culture and language.
