Yup. Pretty much so...although people are growing to be more educated in the cultures of other countries and learning their languages, English is slowly becoming the dominant language. I think that it's a good thing; that way, people can talk in one universal language.

French is the language of diplomacy but English is the language of business. All international and large business groups of China teach English or have translators on their staff. I've lived/ worked pretty much everywhere, large, and have never been anywhere there wasn't English speaking business people.

English is the easiest language to learn. Americans think it's better for others to learn their language but it's not...they should learn an extra one so they don't look so retarded to the rest of the world

While we choose to chatter away with diction and grammar in whichever 'language' we happen to learn (those who are multi-lingual are to be commended), we miss out on a supreme commonality betwixt us all. The language of the body. Facial expression and gestures are true human language. We assume ourselves so clever as to talk or type, yet we miss out on the subtleties of the subtext...

Spanish and Chinese are also enormously popular languages. I find speaking Lallans normally does suffice in my 'worldly globe' :P
