hell im in germany but I work in a pretty much english only atmosphere and my landlord speaks pretty good english but I am still trying to learn as much german as I can. I started learning a year ago and im getting better at it. I know a lot of people here though that don't even bother trying to learn german and sadly most of them are people who are all "Your in america speak english motherfucker" types but they don't see it the other way around.
