Corrected entry: During the flashback sequence of the interstate opening, we can see that Guido was already in Radiator Springs back then, which was some time in 1950's or 1960's. How come after living at least forty years in the United States, among cars speaking English, he hasn't learned the language besides "pit stop" and few other words? It can't count as the character's mistake since, no matter who you are, after years of living in society speaking different language it's natural to you to understand at least basic sentences.

Correction: No, actually it isn't quite as natural as you might think. Coming from NYC, I know/knew people who are/were (some have passed away) immigrants from many places, including Italy (Sicily as two would put it) and Greece, who have been living in the States for 40-50 (or more) years, but who still cannot put a coherent English sentence together. They speak their native languages to children, grandchildren, etc. Amusing how one woman had a fit when she learned of a grandchild goofing off in school, and then yelled in her native language for the student to take learning in America more seriously...
