¿Ingles idioma oficial en Uruguay? / ¿English as oficial language in Uruguay?

La siguiente es una idea que creo, no requiere gran esfuerzo para ser implementada, y podria contribuir a hacer nuestro pais un lugar aun mas abierto a los negocios internacionales.

Se trata de una ley que permita la realizacion de contratos, actas, titulos, etc. en ingles, dandole al ingles un estatus similar al español para la realizacion de negocios tales como contratos, transferencias, compras etc.

Dejo la idea en bruto, sin duda algun abogado podra introducir las correcciones del caso. Pero la idea es hacerle la vida mas facil a un extranjero que no hable español para hacer negocios en el lugar. No se trata solo de extranjeros de paises angloparlantes, sino de personas de todo el mundo realmente.

En la misma linea se deberia poner toda la carteleria del pais en formato bilingue, y tener alguna radio en ingles tambien. Un paso aun mas audaz seria tener cursos en ingles en las universidades y postgrados en este idioma.

Se trata de ir en la linea de crear un pais inteligente e internacional, que sea una plataforma de negocios e intercambios culturales, de flujo, entrada y salida de ideas y servicios.


I have an idea, which I believe, does not require a great effort to be implemented, and that would help to make our country an even more open place to do business.

The idea is simply to create a law, that will allow oficial documents and contracts of certain kinds to be written in english, without the need of a translation. Giving for this purposes, a simmilar status to English to Spanish to make contracts such as purchases, sales, transfers etc.

This is the rough idea, I leave to some law expert to make the improvements and corrections to make this feasible. The idea is to make the life of foreigners doing business here easier. We are not talking about native english speakers only, but people from all parts of the world.

In the same line of though, we could also put all road posting in both languages and have some radio station in english as well. A more ambitious step would be to have University courses and even Post graduate courses taugh in English.

All this should aim towards creating a more thriving place to develop activities, exchange products, culture and services to the world.
