That‘s true. On the contrary, having taken French and Latin, I picked up basic Spanish and Italian almost on the go, when visiting these countries.

Also French is prioritised as it’s our direct neighbour.

    Yes but Italy is also a neighboring country. I blame the Big French corpos

    Italy and Germany do not have a common border.

    Well, it depends. The south-western states usually prioritise French, some north-western offer Dutch. Idk abt the eastern states but judging by the world population speaking either polish or czech, I would believe those are more optional courses, if anything.
