English speakers have the same attitude when it comes to learning a new language as everyone else in the world. This attitude involves being a lazy, indisciplined fuck who gives up after the first throwback and is far too dogmatic in their approach. The only advantage Europeans have is the close proximity to foreign countries and therefore foreign languages and the cultural dominance that English has due to the cultural exports of the USA.
Stop looking for excuses, which make the possible impossible.
