All the time, and that is especially true in France; the only way to do
business across Europe is English; no one speaks all of French, Spanish,
Portuguese, Italian, German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Russian,
Polish, Romanian, Greek and yes English. The de-facto situation is that
almost everyone who steps outside their little part of the world speaks
their native language and English.
But too many French are entrenched in an anti-American culture that
refuses to learn English.
Could you elaborate on how much is "too many"?
