Where do schools actually succeed at teaching foreign languages? I guessing kids in the first world are good at learning English because they want to play English language games and watch tv shows and movies.

Sure, I tried learning japanese from a russian study book that started with japanese words for worker, Lenin and communism, but it didn’t stick. On the other hand is you travel through europe most young people understand english at least at some level.

It’s obviously nowhere near a lingua franca, but it’s impressive how many people across the world are at least somewhat proficient with it because of cartoons, comic books, video games and porn
