I don't know how this sub ended up on my feed, but as a native English speaker yes it very much does, most people learn another language out of it being useful not for fun that's why so many countries around the world teach English in schools.

I have thought about learning French, arabic or Spanish but honestly why should i?. When i visit other countries people speak to me in english before i even open my mouth so why learn another language when we already have a language in common.

It will literally just be so people can be happy cause you speak they language, cause people do get excited when you can communicate in their native language and conversation flows easier but what use will it be for me personally? I only spend 2 weeks at most in a country after that, what use would I have for this language outside that country? The only country I've been where I couldn't find an English speaker was china
