    I should point out that a portion of the stat comes from immigrants who are fully literate in their native language.

    National literacy as a topic forms an interesting picture that I don’t fully understand.

      Yeah the data is kinda fucky cause of that, this has always been a factor too one of my ancestors spoke decent English but could only read and write in German he was considered technically illiterate.
