I think references to them over the manches was a joke, a joke many English say, perhaps references to an older time when we were told them over there were our enemy, in that, you can see our maleducation, education to serve an English hierachy cause over that of people who just want to live in peace. Odd how all through our history, the wankerous lords dominate it, france for example, in my belief got it right, it is just a pity it stopped at the channel. On the subject of another language, I have personally tried to learn a language not my own, many languages over the years, and I would still like to have a useful use of French, Arabic and Spanish, but because of a learning difficulty I possess, I am no use in any. I even at one time told an old Danish gent that I did not speak Danish in perfect Danish language, he just walked away shaking his head, another time whilst living in Sweden, I mixed up Danish and Swedish, the locals got that I was English and spoke to me in very good English, a language they apart from the OAP's learn at school.
