that so many British people are reluctant to speak a foreign language? It is odd, really, considering that the former Manager of the English football team, Fabio Capello, could barely string his few words of English together. A foreign person speaking English sounds like charm to our ears. But listening to ourselves trying to speak another language is like listening to fingernails scrape down a blackboard.
Obviously, we should just relax and let it all hang out. It has to be better than speaking loudly in English and expecting everyone to understand.
