The world is about to end too, isn't it?
Since the beginning of TV, it's always been in English with subtitles except for the news and handful of local movies or shows. Since the beginning of computers, the operating systems and programs were always in English too. When I went to university in the 90's, the majority of our textbooks were in English. When my brother got the idea in the early 2000's to send his American kids to Iceland for a year, they did not learn the language because all the kids in 7th and 8th grade spoke English to them. In 2025, my sisters grandkids speak Icelandic just fine. I have never heard them speak English to each other (mentioned in the article). I wonder if that might happen when one or more in a group of kids are immigrants. The population of Iceland is around 18% immigrants, many of whom do just fine without learning the language, kind of like here. Immigrant kids who go to school there do reach at least a conversational level but not always a level that is good enough to go to high school, kind of like here.
