Comment An international embarrassment (Score 4, Interesting) 426

  Most of the world is multilingual. Learning another language provides skills unrelated to coding. In addition to the obvious benefit of communication, it provides the student with a wider vocabulary and the ability to basically know the meaning of many, many new words they may hear while studying, without the use of a dictionary.
  How many Europeans know only one language? How many Indians or Chineese? Virtually none that have education.
