There you go... ^
Though there are exceptions... After a very long HKG-NRT-SFO (although in F) I arrived in SFO to have this immigration officer speaking to me in Spanglish, I was so tired I never realised he was mixing both English and Spanish. He was asking me "Are you bringing any comida?" Stupid me I didnt realise the name on his badge was a Spanish one, so I was trying to find out what he meant by "comida". I told him I couldnīt understand the last word in his question and he never said "food", he just kept asking me the same question with the same words. I then looked at his badge and realised the spanish name on it just to then realise he was saying a Spanish word at the end of the sentence...
He did ask some more questions in Spanglish but then I was ready
