<< Really? Oh don't get insecure just because Spanish is just spoken in Spain and South America. >>
It's funny how (radical) pro-French people have to bring up Spanish even when it isn't the topic of the posted comment. I was talking about French in Asia Dell, not Spanish. I didn't post anything that wasn't true either.
Besides, you are wrong. Spanish is spoken Spain, South America and North America (Mexico, Central America, minority in US). You say "just spoken" to make it seem small, but this is a huge area with a lot of people. You do have a map, right?
<< French is being revived in Vietnam and its presence in Laos is still there. French is now required in HS curricual in Pakistan for your information. >>
Even if it truly is being "revived" in Vietnam, English is still the dominate foreign language there and all over Asia. I haven't heard that about Pakistan, but English is an official language there and is more useful overall. Basically, English trumphs French pretty much everywhere in Asia.
I'm not saying that French isn't important, just that English beats it out almost everywhere in the international realm, a continuing trend since the WWI and II. French still has international importance, but it has simply lost a lot of influence due to English.
<< But you can't deny the fact the French is so strong in Africa and Spanish is rapidly disapperaning in that continent. >>
To show you that I'm looking at everything fairly, I will not deny that fact. Yes, you are right. French is strong in Africa and Spanish has little significance there.
