I have friends who are native Spanish speakers who say about English what you say about French. Guess it's all a matter of perspective. I found learning French in secondary school to be rather easy. But I had the advantage of already being fluent in Spanish, a very similar language, by then. German (which I studied in college), OTOH, wasn't all that hard for me either. Nor was learning snippets of Turkish, and an African tongue, when I was age twenty. I suppose I just have a natural affinity for Languages.
BTW, I've enjoyed your AAR. Aren't you due to post another installment? Soon, we hope?
