American here - I'm still working on English and it's been a few decades, so I think I might have trouble with another language. I live in South Texas so there are sometimes situations where Spanish is the only language spoken and I can get by well enough with it I suppose. But English gets you pretty far the world over, so we can afford to be lazy about it.

Absolutely, but it’s a rewarding experience to exchange with a foreign culture in there own language. Not some pivot language like English.
