If Americans in general (including me) could speak another language half as well as the Dutch speak English, we'd get along far better in the world.

We would! A great grandmother of mine was Swiss and French Creole. She knew 5 languages. Sadly, I was educated in public K-12s and Universities in the latter 20th century. I only know English but would love to be multi-lingual.
