As an American, there are way too many languages out there and

Today, in the US Spanish is the obvious choice, soon the largest
minority in the country will speak Spanish. Longer term,
Chinese is probably the language for engineers.



At least tube data sheets in other languages are usually intelligible.
Amps is amps, volts is volts, and it's hard to screw up gm and u.


And meters are meters, and kilograms are... opps, I forgot, American's can't speak metric.

in this case, kilos and meters have little to do with electronics.
