      > Germany is #1 in Europe for total non-native English speakers

      That must be *completely* unrelated to Germany being the most populous country entirely in Europe…

      Total numbers are stupid. Germany is the most populous country in Europe, so no surprise there.

      Highly doubt this. The majority of people I know had English class in school but that does not mean that they speak it. Even young people working in service often just refuse to speak English.

      In the Netherlands or Nordic countries I feel like people are way more comfortable speaking English

      I assume this only includes the demographic of sales staff with products to export.

      Twenty year expat in Germany, I say 30% speak Good English.

      Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

      Could you try rephrasing that question?

      what does this mean? germans are good at english? compared to other europeans? as a non-german speaking swede, living in germany, i don’t agree. does it mean that.. germany has MANY non-native english speakers? sure

      I’m quite sure I saw data claiming more than 95% of Dutch people speak English and it was the highest number by far. Can confirm that almost every single Dutch person I know indeed speaks decent English, even had conversations with elderly guys fishing in canals, which was surprising. On the other hand I most often end up speaking my broken German in Germany if I want anything done.

      how many germans can not speak german, is also a crazy number.

      Define “good.” Most (>50%) Germans are likely to have had English as their first foreign language for several years at school. In my opinion, more people understand (reading and listening) and write English “good” than can speak it “good”.

      If the title gore is anything to go by, it probably is not Germany. Also, as others have mentioned, total number is kind of irrelevant.

      Where are the dutch? We need someone to scream PER CAPITA 🗣️🗣️

    21. Adventurous-Mud5803 on

      Listening to German tourists abroad I can’t believe it

    22. RedditAntiHero on

      Brand new account that is posting like crazy. 

      Bot? Karma farm?

    23. ZupaDoopa on

      Germans really underestimate their level of English whenever I meet them. Most are really good even if they think they aren’t.

    24. TheSquadLeader on

      Source? This is bullsh…t in my opinion. I travel to Germany quite often and it surprises me how Germans cannot speak English at all.
      If we look at the Dutchies and the Swedish they speak so good English for not native speakers. So I don’t know who messed up with this poster, in my opinion it is not true at all..

    25. seanpbnj on

      Honestly I would rate Germany damn near top 10 in everything…… The FOOD shocked me the most….. I have craved Doner for like the past decade…….
