Would you marry a person who isn't Armenian?

Originally posted by Anonymouse I never said I'm not willing to accept you, I just don't like the fact that you don't speak Armenian and it is up to us as individuals to educate and learn ourselves. No non-Armenian is going to teach you your language. And lastly, if everyone in the world stopped speaking Armenian, do you for once think that we would actually still be "unique"? A people without a language is not much of a people. One or two may not speak, but we are lucky that most Armenians still speak the language, sadly the situation is changing rapidly.

I am not saying that people should stop learning Armenian or stop speaking it! But you could be more repsectful of her rather than occusing her of not being a true Armenian. And besides you seem to think that I dont speak it either, guess what? You are wrong....

I agree, language is an important part of our culture, and i envy those who are able to speak it..i just don't think is fair for you to disregard someone just because they never got the opprotunity to learn the language
