Obviously you haven't traveled outside of the United States. usually if you want to survive in a foreign country it is wise to learn at LEAST the basics of the language and culture to not make an ass of yourself. I dont expect people to learn languages for the hell of it (i just like to), but when you travel you should at least invest time. you will also find french to be an important language in international business and other corners of the world. do you enjoy when tourists come up to you and start speaking their language?
