french/spanish airspace are special!

i love it when in french and often spanish airspace, you can hear the controller and other aircraft speaking quite energetically in french/spanish and having a recognizable term "turbulence."!!!! etc

not much help for non english speakers, and we have to tie up the frequency even more with questions in english about the same information!!

and like it or not the native language aircraft get priority for sure. only human nature i suppose, especially when the controller is under a load. the native language must be a lot easier!!
