Hi,
How do you think and why, what Romance language Italian, Spanish or French will be the most useful in
addition to English in a journey along the sea coastline from Venice to Lisbon? Or even from Athens to
Lisbon? ))

If we pretend it's a theoretical question, Spanish. If we admit it's about you, then Italian;P

Hello, Enrico!
The survey question that you posed was "What language the most useful in a journey from Athens to Lisbon?".
I think that it would be "more realistic" to provide a list of possible answers as:
Greek
Italian
French
Spanish
Portuguese
English
None of the above
I suggest that you revise the poll choices to included all of the choices above. The results of the pole would be fairly easy to predict.

I mean a Romance language in addition to English.
I'm not interested in learning Greek ) and I know that English will be the best universal one so it will not be
correct to include it in the poll.

So Spanish is leading here. Why? Where except Spain it will be useful along the Mediterranean coastline?
