You've never been to France, right? Maybe this was true 20 years ago, but it is no longer the case. Where I work, in France, there are people who've been here for 10 years who still can't speak the language, which I find pretty depressing. Especially that learning French when you already speak English is pretty easy. I met enough people that managed to become fluent in French in six months to know that it is really not that hard when you put a bit of effort in it. What it usually shows is a lack of curiosity for your environment, which is a big red flag about the social skills about the person.
