English speaking countries are incredibly lazy with languages.It’s shameful that we don’t take it more seriously

Michaelgoround · October 1, 2009, 9:53am

Well I think the jist of it is that “everyone” else knows English so why learn their language?

Josefposef · October 1, 2009, 10:31am

I´m swedish, and i would choose english before swedish cause you can speak it everywhere, And the swedish people are incredible great at speaking english.

padst3r · October 1, 2009, 10:39am

hmm well i guess its easier to understand if you can speak another language

It’s not just to do with public attitude, it’s the education system.

From what I’ve heard and not from personal experience, most people in European countries have the opportunity to learn English from a young age, on a day to day basis. They then have many opportunities to speak English in their own country.
In the UK, we only get the chance to learn a language at the age of about 9 or 10 years and that’s only about once or twice a week. In Scotland anyway, we only have to learn a language until the age of 15. Even then, there is no natural way to speak a foreign language, as everything is done in English.

You can see the problems we have. I would love to be able to speak French far more fluently and I would love to learn atleast a bit of Spanish, but I would have to dedicate my own time and even then I would have no one to talk too.

I too am interested in when Addict will come on the market, always exciting to have a new brand in the mix.

I would definately agree with you on all of those points. I know I had to “learn” Spanish for only a year and they barely taught you any at all in the class. I was even mispronouncing the words I “knew”. If I still lived in Atlanta I would have plenty of oppertunities to practice my Spanish though.

The way I do it, If I know someone is french on the forums, I will post in french, But I wont be going around posting threads in french.

New thread for this maybe?

agentQ · October 1, 2009, 3:37pm

This thread asks a perfectly good question.

The only point that is worth making about language in this thread is.

THE QUESTION WAS IN ENGLISH, THE THREAD TITLE WAS IN ENGLISH

Weather the thread starter can speak another language or not keeping the answer in the same language would be the most useful, as well as respectful way to do it.

Here in America the number two language is Spanish… that is the most common second language for us to learn, so please if the question is asked in English don’t use french to answer… cause you can obviously use both. Saying learn another language is rude as many of us do and have… it just might not be yours.

P.S Emile- This forum may be used internationally, but it is an English speaking forum. There are sections for other languages. Please, I have spent a lot of time fixing my grammar and working on spelling, to make it easier for people,who use English as a second language to read my post.

. . . why is everybody so tense. . . you all do ride UNICYCLES right? c’mon : P a little more : ) and a lot less >: ( would be nice

Isaac_Conyers · October 1, 2009, 11:29pm

bergum · October 2, 2009, 3:43am

The most common language to learn here, is english. This has simply gone too far. It is simple. I know that Mikael is not the best in english. Therefore, I will post in french. It was his question, I answered in french, what’s the big deal? He asked the question, if you guy’s answered it was because you guys knew the answer, not because you wanted to rant about posting in an other language on an international forum. No.
