  2. The Onion: Idaho Legislature Declares English Only Language They Know BOISE, ID—The Idaho Legislature passed a unanimous resolution Monday declaring English the only language the elected assembly knows how to speak, write, or understand. "We're putting into law a general feeling that everyone here has had for years: English is the only language we know, and English is the only language we want to know," Lt. Gov. James E. Risch said during a press conference outside the State Capitol building. "It's a good language, serves us well in matters of communication, and we can't think of any good reason to go around knowing some other language that we have no use for." The legislature is expected to pass a separate resolution later this week officially declaring out-of-towners "suspicious."

Lost in Translation • How does this pop culture exploration of issues of communication represent • communication and miscommunication • the relationships between language, culture, and identity • encounters with difference ? • What do the terms and concepts that we have studied this quarter allow you to see and to say about these representations?
