Gimme a break, I tried in THREE LANGUAGES at 3am, after a crazy police car ride, to help French cops.
Okay, but try in three languages (other than English) at 3 am with American cops, and see where that gets you. You MIGHT get lucky and have a Spanish-speaking cop. If not, forget it.
We do not stack up well as a nation at learning foreign languages. Es triste, pero es la verdad.
