Re: How do Americans view Europeans?
[ QUOTE ]
Beef with Europeans: They love to hate on Americans for only speaking English, and love to brag about speaking three or more languages.
But then you speak with one of these Hungarians (for example) and his English is so broken and remedial that you wonder what their standard is for "speaking" other languages.
I took German in HS, but I wouldn't dream of claiming to speak German.

I think there is quite a difference between Hungaria, and Western Europe countrys(for this example, I mean Belgium, Netherlands, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Ostria, Scandinavia.
Even though I realise my first post was full of spelling errors, I do think that these countrys speak english and other foreign languages quite well.
Also, the work ethic between these Western Europe countrys and other countrys is quite different I'dd say, its more like American standards.
