You really think that? To be able to communicate with people is a gift that we were given genetically (or by God, if you believe in that)...

To be able to communicate to people from other countries/cultures is a wonderful thing and i personally consider that one of the greatest and most enjoyable things one can do.

Dean one language is enough to comunicate.
You don't need more, or if you want then two. one for your own and one global language (in these days called english)
No more languages are needed, and it's a waste of time to learn them.

I'm fluent in three major languages; German, Catalan, English. Lol. That's good enough to have been born in Spain, live in America, and being a soon_to_be German citizen.

Because technically it is correct

Just Bastien uses what most french people tend to use, which is the Perfect (Passe Compose) tense, not the Imperfect (L'imparfait)

Besides - That was an obvious reason why

I don't think using the imperfect in this sentence is really correct in French :-/

And if it may be used, the "tu" should be placed before the "faisais" (with a t and not a s) but if you speak so to a french people, he should understand you

@Mist : Yup, I know Renaud (especially for his translation of vbulletin .... ), I have perhaps spoken once or twice with him but no more ...

I can't comment more about it, I'm sure my english is really bad at some times
