Post a Comment On: Richard Sprague

Ted sent me a whole bunch of reasons why I should have studied French.  Did you know: France has the sixth largest economy in the world after the U.S., Japan, Germany, China and England.  [of course a few years ago they were the 4th largest, but hey] France is the world's third military power (after the US and Russia), and has the world's second largest defense industry (i.e. exocet missiles, radar technology.) France is the fourth largest producer of automobiles in the world (Renault, Peugeot, Citroën) and the third largest exporter. France is fourth in research among countries of the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (after Japan, Germany, and the US). Here's the best quote of the article: When deciding on a foreign language for work or school, consider that French is the language that will give you the most choices later on in your studies or your career.   [Image]
