    Are there any local groups, southeastern U.S. for me, that meet up to teach/learn languages?

    there is yet no constituted groups (numbers matters) and a written forum is probably not the best way to learn a language, especially from scratch but there are many methods for learning basics of languages on YT channels and the idea is to have here people willing to give tips to people who are trying to perfect their use of languages they learn

    Everybody here who is mastering an European language and willing to give tips to fellow Whites (I mean real fellow Whites) can create his topic.

    Remember to activate the ‘notify me follow-ups replies by mail’ case which is below your thread in case you’re not frequently visiting the site.

    Make it a living place.

    the French section already exists, here : https://wd.easytodo.in/dating-site-for-white-people-groups/learners-or-enthusiasts-of-european-languages/forum/topic/le-cafe-francais/#post-7395

    Both my great grandparents on my maternal and paternal sides spoke European languages (Hungarian and German, respectively). The Hungarians were American-Hungarians born in Cleveland (one of the largest populations of Hungarians outside Hungary in those days) to Hungarian immigrants who came at about the turn of the century. The German side also came around that same time and settled in Pittsburgh, popular for many Germans in those years. Whereas my American-born Hungarian great grandparents spoke Hungarian and retained their identity, names, culture, etc., it was not passed on to my grandmother. Generally, it was not favorable at the time, because of their intentions to have bright futures for their American children, perhaps in a world which they assumed would not come to where it is today, riddled with racial problems, etc.

    My mothers fathers side is interestingly from the beginning of America and is of Scottish and British ancestry. Their family name “Baldridge” had the oldest and third oldest land patents made near George Washingtons’ birthplace. I suppose this makes me a Son of the American Revolution.

    Old English is beautiful but I think learning a currently spoken language would be more useful. Far from me to stop you from learning OE though!

    Are you exclusively English? I think even for unmixed white people, we still have different European ethnicities in our DNA. If you’ve ever taken a DNA test you’ve likely found you have a little DNA from neighbouring European countries.
    It would be super cool if you were 100% anglo though.

    Also it doesn’t need to be in your DNA, it could be your partner’s 🙂

    As far as I know, english is my ancestral language. Guess I could learn Old English I am interested in learning other languages.
    I just joined the site today. Are there any local groups, southeastern U.S. for me, that meet up to teach/learn languages?

    I often read about Euro Americans feeling dismayed when other immigrants keep speaking their native languages in public, and when they speak English they still have a heavy accent even after many years, I feel you bros!
    Mexican Spanish is the most common foreign language, but I think Chinese and Arab are common as well and equally annoying.

    Europeans who immigrated to USA/Canada were taught that to integrate they had to forget their native language and blend into the “melting pot”, and they often did. In theory there is nothing wrong in wanting to integrate successfully into the host culture and leaving your previous culture behind you, but this only works when everyone is doing it.
    Now that immigration in America is almost completely non-white the rules have changed. Immigrants are being encouraged to KEEP their culture and language, and are being praised every time they do something that’s not American (i.e. Ramadan, Chinese New Year, Cinco de Mayo) or when they speak their native tongue.
    They are often very tight-knit because they have their language to talk to each other, this sets them apart from everyone else and strengthens their in-group bonds.

    There is nothing we can do to make other people change, but consider what YOU can do to change. People who have recently immigrated to America, don’t stop speaking your native language and teach it to your children as well! Consider teaching your spouse too.

    Statistics put Germans as the largest ethic group in the USA (source), I don’t know if they are the most numerous as claimed, but it’s true that there are many. Irish, Italians and Polish are numerous as well.
    If you are a Euro American who has lost their native language, consider picking up lessons with your partner, not only it’s a useful skill in general, but practising activities with your loved ones strengthens your bonds as well.

    Reclaiming your culture and religion is not easy, but reclaiming your language is entirely doable!
