For a long time French people were mostly unconcerned with learning English. Maybe it's like that in other European countries too, I don't know, but I have lots of French friends so I know its true for them. The French have a lot of pride in their own language, although most of the ones I know wish they were <<bilingue>> (speak English).

No, it's not. In most of the nothern or eastern european countries peoples are easily learning and speaking english and other languages. The frenchs are just the french exception. :)
