In all public buildings in nyc there are translators for every language you could think of. I go to court once a week for work and they always say "I have to ask this but do you need a translator". I can see why with more non english heard in the streets here then english, but it kind of pisses me off how much trouble we go through to have it that way. Also billboards and subway ads completely in spanish can fuck right off. Along with people who ask me if I habla espanol and get all pissed off when I say no. If you expect to fit in with a non native country, learn the language, I would.
