Naturally, the initial culture to use the language (for example: the people of England, English) have advantage in using the language then the succeeding cultures to adopt the language.

I'm an English speaking Filipino. And I feel the only culture I have is Catholicism. Am I disadvantaged to an Englishman and this English World, until I abandon my culture? Or must I put up with the discrimination of my culture, and make me verbally & economically disadvantaged without impairing my integrity?

Or must I have an album about Economics and Catholicism to prove my point?
Note that album is a Latin word for white.

just curious... and yes I know about the American occupation there and everything, but we here in Australia don't say we speak english like the people in England. There is clearly a difference. I work with some Americans and Filipinos and there is a noticable difference. My Filipino collegues insist that they speak American-English and none of us here in the office have said a word otherwise. Just curious...
