I’ve been always surprised that Spanish is not as relevant as it should be in the German system, as for the german speakers it’s really easy to pick up and master, also Mallorca is practically a german city.
I’m not sure I would agree, maybe it’s a regional thing or a generational thing (mid 20s here), but every school I know of here in germany offered spanish as a 3rd language

That‘s true. On the contrary, having taken French and Latin, I picked up basic Spanish and Italian almost on the go, when visiting these countries.
Also French is prioritised as it’s out direct neighbour.
Yes but Italy is also a neighboring country. I blame the Big French corpos
Italy and Germany do not have a common border.
Ah shit! You got me. Then polish and czech?
