I don't speak french at all, so my biggest fear is being treated rudely. A friend of my aunt's visited Paris a while ago and said she was appalled by how she was treated since she spoke only english. Hopefully this isn't usually the case.

Maybe they think that their language is the world's language maybe (and that is true) so they don't need to do effort... American maybe are lazy about learning a new language what do you think about that YOU AMERICAN ? You see I make an effort in english to talk to you because I respect you but I could speak like that too => Dites-moi les américains pourquoi vous ne voulez pas vous fatiguer à apprendre une langue étrangère? Vous êtes trop paresseux pour ça ou est-ce parce que vous considérez pas cela nécessaire vu que l'anglais est la langue universelle?

hi
french from paris are not famous for being specially nice with tourists, it's curious because there are about 27 millions foreign visitors /year, it's probably the most visited city in the world many ppl speak english there, at least they're able to understand the language ppl from south of france are generally more friendly cheers

Anyway, your question has been discussed before under the topic "Simple Question." IMO, the big pond between our two continents has made the US population less prone to be multi-lingo. It's not like our borders are surrounded by various speaking language countries. French and Spanish is widely offered as an elective (optional) courses in our schools. Given the choice and being that to our south are Spanish speaking countries and few speaking French in Canada, people might look more towards Spanish if anything. Even then most people do not travel outside the country, and if they do it would be a once in a life time matter, therefore they believe they do not have a need to learn another language fluently. So, to simplify the answer, it's mostly a matter of geography.

N'est pas une excuse à mon avi. Aussi, quand on visite un pays étrange, il est non seulement poli, mais mieux pour son propre expérience de ce pays pour parler avec des personnnes en leure propre langue. Non? Et finalement, quelques idées sont différent en les différent langues, donc apprendre des langues élargit l'esprit. Mais les gens sont stupides partout, juste dans différentes manières.
