Not entirely sure what you’re saying, sorry if I got it wrong, but it seems like you’re implying I said the opposite of what I actually posted.
My point was there is no genetic predisposition to being bad at language learning but that the language education in the UK is woefully bad. I’ve spent more time learning how to learn Spanish than actually learning it because we’re not taught the skill of language acquisition from childhood.
The reason the government hasn’t invested in language skills is because it’s the lingua franca (the irony of that phrase isn’t lost on me), but the argument of “weak aptitude for language learning” used in the article is patently false.
