but still the number of those who learn german as their second language is major <_<
i think that's a rumour, people told me the same befor i went to sweden myself. my brother lives in sweden and he knows few people that do speak german properly. most do learn german as 3rd language, 1st english, 2nd french/spanish or so.
but maybe there are regional differnces? :unsure:
