Mostly yes. The people speaking Swedish and Norwegian have some advantage by belonging to the Germanic language family, but we learn English at school from quite early grade and our TV shows all programs in their original languages which helps a lot. Many parents also have told me that their kids' English has improved tremendously by playing video games, both online and offline.

What i found interesting , every foreign language i studied starts with 2 basic verbs;    to be ...and to have ;
               What a damn selfish materialistic world we live in; the soul means nothing,  it's all about ; who you are... and ....what you own, even if we come into this world naked, crying full of ...dodo and we don't take anything back when we leave, not even our dead body; 
Why don't we start with; to give and .. to love first; ?

There's no 'to have' in Russian, and the thing that you possess is the subject of the sentence while you are the object
(theres some kind of joke about communism in there, or some kind of praise about the character of Russians, or both)
To be isn't really used either unless it has to be used in infinitive form
(у меня книга ~ u menya kniga ~ by me {is} {a} book ~ i have a book)
The other east slavic languages are the same i dont know about west and south slavic
I took a few years of German in high school and two years of Russian in college
I didnt learn much Russian but i did learn that it's very hard

You are right, I know, what you are saying, i studied Russian from 1977 to 1994, was part of communist schools program; i forgot alot, you need practice, was the most difficult to learn because of the Cyrillic alphabet; but was a must to pass exams in engineering  university; behind the iron curtain  all the the technical stuff came in from Russia.

Motherland,
I am not a student of lanquages but I can read a little of
the ancient middle egyptian hieroglphs.
The ancient Eyptians didn't include what we would call vowels in their writings
although they most assuredly pronounced them
This is one reason why it took so long to translate the Rossetta stone
As a matter of fact, I misspelled my forum ID before I discovered that the "mes"
in Ramesis should actually be "ms" since the glyph of 3 tied fox tails shouldactually
be transliterated as "ms" and the "e" of "mes" was included by Eygptologists
to make the the name easily translated.

A lot of Canadians speak the nasally sounding French (even us Western English speakers, my parents were sadists and put me in a French immersion school until the 8th grade).  What impresses me is the European countries, particularly Switzerland, the Northern countries, and so on, that all speak "their" language, but typically also 3 or 4 others, and very fluently as well.  German/French/English in Switzerland were all very common when I was there, Norway, everyone spoke English, Norwegian, and usually one or two others.  Languages are so much easier to pick up when taught from a young age, children speaking 4 languages is no big deal in Europe, parts of it anyway, but in N.A. if you speak 4 languages in high school they rave like it's some "gift" that's been imparted.

Regarding English - I think it is time the world recognized that English in the UK is so far different from English in the majority of the rest of the English speaking world (North America, most of it at least, aircraft communications many places, etc) that it should be given a different name.  "The Queenss English, Britlish, Ukish,", while the rest of us can just stand pat with "normal" English.  We can even drop the cap letter, and have it just be "english".  Yay!  Insert old man icon a la Zack.

English. I'm currently working on Spanish with German being a very distant goal. I'm using Rosetta Stone - I like it for the most part. I went to a public school system here in southern Arkansas where language classes were seen as an elective. I took Spanish I and II in high school, but its hard for anything to stick when you're in a class full of yahoos who neither appreciate nor want to be there. Examples include turning off the lights in a windowless classroom to chunk books around and scream, as well as yelling F-bombs and other obscenities because the Panamanian teacher doesn't fully understand them. She was a little old mousy woman who the kids ran over; she would call the office for help at least once per period for help - administration just ignored her. College was better - basically a rehash of Spanish I and II within a far better learning  environment.
