««No cabe duda de que una..................
(Es claro que un sexto del poblacion del mundo consiste de los chinitos que) COMPLETLY WRONG
Es claro que-------->spanglish
consiste de------->spanglish in this context »»

Quando no cabe duda entonces todo es claro, no?
Cual la diferencia entre consistir e ser compuesta?

"Seeing as he is German, I expect he'd (s)peak that as well". You figured that out, huh? That, since he's German, he must speak German as well? Very profound. You're a Rhodes Scholar, no doubt.

In November 2006,in Istanbul-Constantinople(after Bartholomew ecumenical patriarch invited him) Pope said the greek-orthodox "Pater noster qui es in caelis" and his pronounciation was amazing.

tu verdad es todo menos verdad. Lee algo sobre economía o Política, porque mi razón dice que Asia sí hace la diferencia en el mundo e influye gigantescamente en el precio de los commodities e incluso en religion.
Si el papa decide aprender un idioma, no deberia aprenderlo por la importancia de determinados paises, porque seía algo frío; pero totalmente razonable si decidiera hacerlo. Las personas en si mismas, son un fin. No un medio para un fin (algo dsobre Kant).

<<No es probable que el hable el mandarin. Es claro que un sexto del poblacion del mundo consiste de los chinitos que, pero la verdad es que los chinitos no hacen un impacto grande en los negocios internacionels, mucho menos religion...

Un punto ultimo para los hispanohablantes que estan leyendo este, por favor, una otra vez,>>

'Internacionels'.- should be 'internacionales'
'Un punto ultimo'.- 'Un último punto sounds slightly, just slightly better, don't forget to place the accent... although many native speakers forget it...
'estan leyendo este'.- 'este' is only a demostrative adjective, it can't be used as an object... that should be 'esto'
'una otra vez'.- 'una vez más' or 'otra vez'

<<corrijan lo que he escrito porque quiero perfeccionar esta lengua. >>

Mientras leía, ni por un segundo imaginé que no era un hispano hablante el que redactó ese post... Solo me dí cuenta al ver el último párrafo que tenía algunos errores raros... Y cuando leí esa última linea, me dí cuenta que me encontraba ante alguien que habla el Español muy bien... Mejor que muchos hispanohablantes...

He doesn't "speak" speak those languages. He knows them well enough to be able to give a pre-prepared speech in them but he doesn't know them properly.

<<<<<spanish i've heard that he can't even say hola in spanish thats weird because i heard him once speak spanish on t.v >>>>>

I've heard him speak irish too, but only as lip service in his urbi et orbi speech. John Paul's pronunciation was better though. Kinda miss him.

<<<I'm curious, i wonder if all the popes in the vatican speak latin to one another.
I guess they all must know latin>>>>

eh there tends only to be one at a time:-) Unless your suggesting there is some kinda pope factory, that keeps popping popes out as the other pop their pope-shoes. :P

Pope Benedict XVI speaks 10 languages, 4 of them fluently.

Amongst them are English and Italian as well as his native German.
