Besides that, besides my native language and English, I had German and French in school (which are required topics in our country). So I can speak the native language of all nearby countries.

And the US still uses Arabic numerals in spite of banning visas for basically every Arab country in the world.
We actually already use Globish that has different idioms and so on. End we can express different kind of informations there.
