Hi everyone!
Here in the US, many schools offer foreign language classes as part of the curriculum for primary and secondary schools. Depending on which part of the US you live in, the choices for said languages classes vary, however, the most common languages being taught in school (from what I've seen personally) are Spanish and French. In my case, the school I attend teaches Spanish, French, Italian, Mandarin, and Latin!
But that has got me wondering, what about other countries? What foreign languages are being taught in primary/secondary schools in your country? Which foreign language did you take? (or are taking if you are still in school). Also, which language(s) do you wish your country's education system offered? (if any)
Thanks for reading!
Edit: I just wanted to add that the USA does not have a nationwide foreign-language mandate at any level of education, so it's up to individual states or districts to set up their own requirements! In my case, I learned surface-level Spanish from grades 1-5, from grades 6-8 I had the choice of Spanish and French (choose Spanish), and finally from grades 9-12 I had more choices with Spanish, French, Italian, Mandarin, and Latin (choose Mandarin) :)
