Nicolas Paras · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  While Spanish is the official language of Mexico, speaking it is not a necessary condition for being Mexican. There are indigenous languages spoken in Mexico as well, and there are also people of Mexican heritage who may not speak Spanish. Similarly, speaking Spanish is not a sufficient condition for being Mexican, as there are Spanish-speaking countries other than Mexico. Therefore, Spanish language proficiency is neither necessary nor sufficient for being Mexican.
