starting in grade school. In much of the world it's common practice though not a state requirement, and in many places it is a state requirement.

I like the idea of choice. People should be able to choose the languages they want to learn. But some foreign language should be a requirement, and it should be taught from grade school, not starting in high school. By then you're already way past prime language acquisition.

Pero para eso, tendriamos que contratar profesores. Hoy en dia, eso no se hace!
