    I went to a high school where there were students from a variety of Middle Eastern nations. I was wondering: Why do Chaldeans talk in their native language all the time, and in front of others who don’t? (See R176 for a related question.)

    Some of the Chaldeans you may have heard probably spoke their native language (Aramaic) because either they were more fluent in it than in English, or because they were saying something they didn’t want the ‘non-Chaldeans’ to hear.
