I bet the French publishers would disagree, though. They will still be needed by the French authors who I doubt will start writing in English overnight, if ever.

Of course to each its own, but you would be surprised by the number of French learners. Also French is a language natively spoken on every continent. This can't be said of that many languages.

It turns out I can interact in several languages and the more I know of languages, the more I like each of them for what make them specific, French included I have heard many learners said they like the flow of the French language with all the liaisons between words.
