It is ften said that Western Eurpeans speak English. Frm traveling all thrugh Eurpe, I knw that this is nt entirely true. Sme regins f Eurpe have a 90% f English speaking rate, while in ther parts, English is generally a tngue which is impssible t understand. The divide, it seems, lies with the Rmance languages.
In Scandinavia, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and the rest f the Western Eurpean nn­Rmance language speaking regins, English seems t be understd and spken just like the peple's first tngue. In Iceland, I have never experienced English was spken s well and s widely by a nn­native speaking cuntry. And I have almst never met a Dutch persn wh did nt speak English almst as well as my cuntrymen.
But when yu mve t the suth f Western Eurpe a little, smething happens. English becmes a less useful language fr traveling. Yu just crss ver the Rmance language barrier (障碍) and int Spain, Prtugal, France, and Italy, where English is spken at a rate that des nt seem t be much higher than in China, Latin America, r Sutheast Asia.
Traveling thrugh Eurpe and wrking in htels arund the wrld that are ppular with Eurpeans have given me a deeper view f their usage f freign languages. The nrthern Eurpeans can ften speak five r six languages, while the Rmance speakers hardly knw mre than their birth tngue. And if yu think that Spanish and Italian are s similar that their speakers can understand each ther, I tell yu that this is cmpletely wrng. Spaniards and Italians dn't even understand each ther. It is als nt a fact that peple frm bth f these cuntries can cmmunicate in French; nly thse wh put a large amunt f effrt int learning English r have lived abrad fr years can speak English well.
Peple ften say that French peple really understand English but refuse t speak it, but frm watching hundreds f French travelers ver the years struggle with English abrad as well as friends in France trying in vain (徒劳无益) t cmmunicate with me, I knw that this is nt true. English is simply nt widely spken there utside the large cities.
