Why should people, especially non-english Europeans, learn any other language than English?
>German, French, Russian, etc. are used by less people than the United States alone has >English is simpler, more beautiful, every form of modern media gets first released in English, we have Germans, French, whatever musicians singing in primarily English, we have German, Dutch, Swedish, whatever universities where every piece of informations gets first released in English because their own language has become less important than English >we have non-English people speaking English better than the average American, and even being WORSE AT THEIR OWN LANGUAGE and better at English, which is just hilarious >The anglosphere is the center of modern Western civilization, whether you like it or not, every famous piece of media or educational stuff comes from there, other countries just cannot compete with the sheer cultural output of England, America, Canada and Australia >it saves money learning just English and not speaking your own garbage talk that YOUR OWN PEOPLE are even too stupid to speak because everybody learns and speaks ENglish and HE LEARNS IT BECAUSE LITERALLY EVERYBODY SAYS THAT ENGLISH IS MORE IMPORTANT FOR YOU THAN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE
So, stormfags, tell me ONE reason why non-english languages should still be teached.
There is no reason other than "muh feelings muh culture muh ancestors talked like dis".
English will eventually become the planet's official language, I hope you do realize that.
German, French, Russian, all this other garbage talk will simply dissappear in the awe of the English language.

Learn greek or latin and read classical literature.

bydlo as fuck

I agree. That's why I learned English and Chinese.

Genesis 11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
Everyone speaking English confounds god back!
Justin Adams
Most of us don't need to learn English, Arabic and Urdu
Jacob Perry
I'm English and I only speak English. National languages are an important part of tradition and identity.
If you want to communicate then put in the effort and learn other languages, they are an important part of culture.

>he's proud of learning completely useless barbaric tongues when he can already speak English
Why waste your time?

Languages are the sound of a culture and people and should be preserved against bastardisation as a result of american reality TV. Iceland has done a good job at keeping their language for example, but Norway has not and as a result Norwegian will die shortly because the youth just watch shit american TV and don't even bother using perfectly fine norwegian words for english words. And its' not just modern hydbrid words like "laptop" (bærbar).
Fuck off OP you globalist kike
Wyatt Wright
I always thought that a single language would make everything from communication to transaction a lot easier and faster. So yeah, anything other than english isn't/shouldn't be needed.

I agree. Globalism is inevitable and we should all learn english.

The Americanization of Norwegian baffles me desu. Swedes use plenty of English words and expressions for no good reason, but Norwegians are 1000x worse. It's horrible.
Carson Sanders
Ach Kevin...
Jason Garcia
Because you can. I'm fluent in Dutch and English, know a bit of German and French and I'm currently learning Spanish just for fun.
And saying English is beautiful is fucking retarded. It's a disgusting language on many levels, even before the Americans dumbed it down into their own version.

Wow, that's what I call a diverse mindset.

Tons of inconsistencies between spelling and pronunciation, making it impossible to know how to pronounce a word just by reading it. That stupid consonant shift. American English often sounds stupid as fuck. Lack of expressiveness in some cases (although that can be said for most languages). And there's probably a lot more that makes it a pretty ugly language that I can't think of off the top of my head. There's a couple of sounds that are very hard to produce.
That said, it's a pretty simple language, especially for Dutch speaking persons like me since it is so similar, which makes it an alright lingua franca.

Germanybro, why do you deerpost everyday? You've been at this for 2 weeks, that's really dedication to spam deer everyday.
Josiah Hughes
Why are most Germans pro globalism?
Landon Evans
Because it is the rational thing to do and Germans tend to be the only rational people in Europe who grew beyond pathetic tribalism.
Literally every economy profits from this.
And economy is one of the most important aspects of our countries, because it allows us to live life to our fullest extent.
Cooper Cox
>he thinks learning other languages actually takes effort lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooo I thought leftists were supposed to be the high IQ educated people
Juan Mitchell
Learning other useless languages takes time away from being productive and potentially discussing new ideas with other members of the human race which could be profitable.
Henry White
Germans have the highest potential in everything. They are very rational (in most ways). But they are too liberal, and globalism isn't always that great. Our government should've just given people more money for fucking and having kids.

Es la verdad. El idioma Espanol se parece un poco al idioma Italiano. No es mui dificil aprenderlo

A language isn't just a way of speaking, it's also a way of thinking. Every language is structured in a way that reflects the mentality/culture of its natives.
For example, english is a relatively simple and efficient language, you can get many a point across without need for complex wording or grammatical structure.
German is a language that is complex, but you can build words by taking different words and putting them together, and make very long sentences by putting various sentences together, a reflection of german ingenuity. (yes, you can do this in english too, but it's not that commonplace, since you can use shorter sentences easily, which in german isn't so convenient.)
Spanish is a relatively complex language, which always makes it necessary to say things in a very roundabout way, a reflection of the inefficiency and excess of pointless complexity and ornamentations in spaniard culture.
Speaking various languages also allows you to look at any challenge with a different viewpoint. It's also a proven scientific fact that people who grow up speaking more than one language develop a intelligence than those that only speak one.

Looks like Germany has also lost all understanding of culture. You deserve to die tbqh.
