English Language Dominates International Conferences Abroad
RG Hunter of Des Moines attended an international insurance officials convention in Stockholm. He notes that while 20 nations and 15 languages were represented, only American and British delegates spoke a single language, with most others using two to five languages. English, German, or French were used for all proceedings, suggesting English is becoming the default language for international meetings. The Swedish Crown Prince delivered his welcome in fluent English, and hosts and attendees impressed with linguistic ability.
