A Swiss man is looking for directions, and he pulls up at a bus stop where
two Americans are waiting.
"Entschuldigung, konnen Sie Deutsch sprechen?" he asks. The two
Americans just stare at him.
"Excusez-moi, parlez vous Francais?" he tries. They continue to stare.
"Praat julle Afrikaans?" The Americans just look at each other.
"Parlare Italiano?" No response.
"Hablan ustedes Espanol?" Still nothing.
Disgusted, the Swiss guy drives off.
One American guy turns to other and says,
"Y'know, maybe we should learn a foreign language."
"Why?" says the other. "That guy knew five languages and it didn't do
him no good either."

LOL. Most natural born Americans don't learn other languages unless they are a business major.

LOL... Well, there's some truth in that, English is definately the main foreign language to learn... I speak a few more though, just in case
