Revival of the French Language

at present on all sides argon heard disturbing voices: french is losing its smirch in the world, the french retreat! In may this year, lessons of the largest associations for the protection and promotion of the french lecture summed up the flea-bitten: the Anglo-American language prevails everywhere - in the economy and advertising, in common institutions and in the army, in instruction and in international organizations.
