when i was 11, i had my first year of french classes and was so bad at it that i had to repeat the entire year. i had a total of 12 years of french until i graduated, and during university, i had to retake every french exam at least once never had a moment where i really needed to speak french after i graduated, disgusting

pretty difficult language to master and native speakers will never respect you, no matter your level of proficiency

One of my current pet peeves is the terrible way the education system teaches languages as one-size-fits-all. Did two years of French in high school, remembered none of it. I don't even live in an area where there's a lot of French speakers. Spanish would have been far more relevant. But French was the only language my high school offered and you had to have two years to graduate. Decided on a whim last year to challenge myself to learn Chinese, figured out how *I* learn best, and managed to be reading novels (with lots of lookups) in six months. Started picking up Korean, and I'm dabbling in Spanish to prep for having to drudge through two semesters of it in college to finish my bachelor's because it's a gen ed requirement.

I only took 2 years of French and I can only say rediculous things vs anything useful beyond how are you.

It's like the least common multiple, I've never used it in my entire life.
