        If not, then I consider you French. Armenian is not just a label people forget, it is a culture, a way of thought and expressions that are inherent in the language.

        Thus it is a way of thinking and expressive yourself already predetermined in the language.
        I speak, but I hadn't had the luck to go to an armenian school. I read very slowly and write with many errors. It's just a matter of time, since I get involved in the learning these days.
        Anyway, the matter is not me. If you consider i'm french, for you only i may be french. But a culture is not so elitist and is opened to will. Even if you think that there exists a way of thinking directly linked to the language itself, which should be in fact almost true, this way of thinking is always colored by the experience you've had during your life (education, local culture...)

        What i was trying to say is that no one else than yourself may give you a "quality measure" of your culture. It's too simple to categorize people in armenian & non-armenian, but it's not so "binary". You should have much more of the armenian culture than me, but I won't consider you as being "more" armenian than me, but rather a different person. Even in armenia, some people are much more cultivated, know much more of the litterature, art... Are they more armenian than the other ones, even if they live the same place ?

        Some people in the diaspora hardly speak armenian, but are really involved in their community, or interested by this culture they have, in a certain manner, inheritated. It's certainly not their fault if they don't speak. Is this interest not enough to consider them as being armenian ?

        Their is no true or false armenian. There is men having a part of armenian culture or interest.

              I don't think that I would EVER marry a non Armenian. First off all, my parents would disown me. lol but the most important reason is that being Armenian is about marrying an Armenian and raising your kids as "Armenians." That's my point of view on that topic because I feel that if we dont marry within our own nationality our language, culture, and everything that we worked hard for will fade away.

                    Which do you prefer? The fading of your culture, which isn't going to happen simply because of the mixing of nationalities, or the continuation of your culture with no changes, but in complete isolation, self-ostracized from all others?

                      it might sound mean, but sorry pal
                      you're gonna have to teach yourself to get over the fact that at least 90% of Armenian girls end up with Armenian guys!
                      and that makes me feel all babyish happy inside
