I am all for it. Why learn German, English and French? We can all just learn our native language and English and communicate that way. Seems easier for everyone.
I hated French. And after 6 years of french. I still dont speak or understand any. And many students feel the same.
To people about to dunk on “expats”, please do so in English so they’re able to understand it and respond to it.
Cool info, irrelevant however, if even in towns where pretty much everyone speaks English or is capable of it, e.g Thun, none of the official documents are in English. Switzerland continues to do close to nothing to accommodate foreigners – in terms of legal procedures / documents / stuff, and tries to force them to integrate, ignoring the resentment that is natural in humans about being forced to do something…
Think what you may, English IS the language of those who travel, and therefore it will spread in all countries via expats or tourists and people interacting with tourists. It’s a pointless fight to try to not accommodate it and make it easier.
