    I would rather be able to flirt on my home turf and know it works than guess with a foreign woman. Or rely on the luck that she knew a language I did.

    Can you imagine how easy an English major would be if you knew what every single word in the language meant? I don't know other languages anyway, sign me up!

    Other countries speak English... so if you're in the US you still know British English and vice versa.

      If you move to Japan, you would suddenly not know Japanese though. The choice was "Speak every language except for the country you are CURRENTLY in." That means moving to Japan would make you suck at Japanese.

      Actually, on second thought, that would make both choices good wouldn't it? Otherwise the choice would be overwhelmingly Red.

    If it changes when moving then that makes this a no-brainer.

    Even if you didn't know your own country's language, you could pick up bits and pieces of the language, enough to get by.

    USA doesn't have an official language, so I can speak all the languages.
