Why would it be good to say קריאת שמע in your own language?
The מצוה of קריאת שמע is to UNDERSTAND Hashem runs this place...
If you don't understand the Hebrew, better to do in English
הַתְּוֹקֵעַ לְהִתְלַמֵד, אְוֹ הַמְבָרֵךְ בִּרְכַת הַמָזוֹן עִם קָטַנִים לְחַנְכָם בְּמִצְוֹת וְהוּא הַיָה גַם כֵּן חַיָב בְּבִּרְכַת הַמָזְוֹן, וְשָׁכָח אַז לְהִתְכַוֵן לְצֵאת בָּה... לְֹא יָצָא יְדֵי חְוֹבָתְוֹ... לְֹא יָצָא אַפִילוּ לְמַאן דְאַמַר מִצְוֹת אֵין צְרִיכוֹת כַּוָנָה , דְהַוֵי כַּמְכַּוֵן בְּפֵרוּשׁ שֶׁלֹא לָצֵאת.
When bentching with cmapers, and you're also חַיָב obligated... need to have intent לְצֵאת to fulfill obligation
Even according לְמַאן דְאַמַר to the the one that says mitzvos don't need kevannah, you DO need it here, to say בְּפֵרוּשׁ explicitly you want to fulfill mitzvah of bentching
How many days do you get to eat your קרבן שלמים steak?

To remember 'ה runs this place!
If you forget to remember that... you gotta say it again!
According to the שלחן ערוך ומשנה ברורה... what could be wrong with saying קריאת שמע in a different language?
Things get lost in translation
יְכוֹל לִקְרוֹתָה בּכֹל לָשׁוֹן. וְיִזָהֵר מֵדִבְרֵי שִׁבְּוּשׁ שְׁבּאְוֹתוֹ לָשְׁוֹן וְידַקְדֵק בּוֹ כְּמוֹ בְּלָשׁוֹן הַקֹדֶש.
You're יְכוֹל able to say שמע in any language, but וְיִזָהֵר be careful to watch out for bad translations, and וְידַקְדֵק be exact the way it is in Hebrew
What punishment is given for eating פיגול?
One would get כרת... cut off from ה', תורה, and the Jewish People for eternity... חס ושלום!!
Grilled cheese lunch at camp... you're bentching with your campers!
You weren't focused, and forgot to have כוונה. Do you have to bentch again? Why or why not?
Yes... Look at כוונה for 400...
You're not bentching because there's a mitzvah to bentch... you're bentching to teach the kids to bentch.
That's also important... but different mitzvah!
Specifically קריאת שמע... better to do in Hebrew or English?
(Look at משנה ברורה Page 5!)
The משנה ברורה says it's מצוה מן המבחר, the best way to do שמע is in Hebrew
Most Jews know what שמע means... so why change it?!
וְכִי תִזְבּחוּ זֶבַח שְׁלָמִים לַה׳ לִרְצוֹנְכֶם תִּזְבּחֻהוּ: בְּיוֹם זִבְחַכֶם יֹאְכַל וְמִמָחָרָת וְהַנְוֹתָר עַד יְוֹם הַשְׁלִישִׁי בְּאֵשׁ יִשָׂרֵף: וְאִם הֵאָכֹל יֵאָכֵל בַּיוֹם הַשְׁלִישִׁי פִּגוּל הוּא לֹא יֵרָצֶה: וְאֹכְלָיו עַוֹנוֹ יִשָׂא כִּי-אֶת-קֹדֶש ה׳ חִלֵל וְנִכְרְתָה הַנֶפֶשׁ הַהוּא מֵעַמֶיהָ:
When giving a זֶבַח sacrifice, (Shelamim) finish it within 3 days
If there's נְוֹתָר, leftovers... BURN IT!!!
If you have in mind the wrong place or wrong time, the קרבן is פִּגוּל R-E-J-E-C-T-E-D!!!
Why is a person punished for eating פיגול? (Look at the פסוק)!
Didn't treat קדושה properly
There was a geshmaka bagel breakfast today at school!! You forgot to have כוונה for bentching :(
Do you need to bentch again? Why or why not?
No... the only reason why you're bentching in the first place is because there's a mitzvah to bentch!
According to the ביאור הלכה... when can I say שמע in English? Why?
It needs to be a spoken language in that country...
The only "real language" is לשון הקודש... that's how 'ה Created the World
All other languages are הסכם המדינה, agreement of the country... if that country didn't declare your language, it's gibberish... and doesn't count for שמע!
״אְוֹתָן דְבָרִים הַנֶאֶמָרִים בְּכֹל לָשׁוֹן״ הוּא דַוְקָא אִם אַנְשֵׁי אוֹתוֹ הַמְדִינָה מְדַבְּרִין כַּךְ, אַבָל אִם אַנְשֵׁי הַמְדִינָה אֵינָם יְכוֹלִין לְדַבֵּר זֶה הַלָשׁוֹן... בִּשְׁלָמָא לָשׁוֹן הַקֹדֶש הוּא לָשׁוֹן מִצַד הַעֶצֶם, מַה שֶׁאֵין כֵּן שַׁאַר לָשְׁוֹן אֵינֶנוּ כִּי אִם מִצַד הֶסְכֵּם הַמְדִינָה, וְכֵּיוָן שְׁאֵין אַנְשֵׁי הַמְדִינָה זוּ מַכִּירִין בְּלָשׁוֹן זֶה, לְֹא נִקְרָא לָשׁוֹן כְּלַל.
Saying Shema in a different language is only okay if people of that מְדִינָה country talk that way
בִּשְׁלָמָא I understand if you say it in Hebrew... that's a real language!
But all other languages are just a הֶסְכֵּם, agreement that table is where you kick your feet up
People in the country מַכִּירִין know that language
