Bud, thanks for your kind words. 
I am from the Czech Republic, a small country in Central Europe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czech_Republic
Our western and southern neighbours are Germany and Austria and so the first foreign language here was German followed by English. This is true for elderly people, for young people the order is opposite.
During the era of Soviet influence after the WWII, Russian language was compulsory. Thanks God it is over.
With hindside, what languages concerns, I can say it was a good training for our little grey cells.
