Hello,
I guess, on the one hand it´s because all children in Germany start learning English from elementary school until graduation. So they deal with this subject about 11 - 14 years. On the other hand English is a very common language in Germany and the German linguistic basics ease the english pronunciation.
Yes, my friends largely are speaking English very well. Most of them studied inter alia in America, Canada and England
But the Japanese language is more interesting to me, because the grammar doesn´t have anything in common with those of Germanic and Romanic.
At first view I got the impression, it would not be that hard to learn Japanese grammar. But then, the structures were getting more and more complex
But I think like I just said: you have to go step by step.
Because of this I will be very grateful for your help.
じゃね
