Being a Cultural Ambassador in Japan: the Other Side of the EFL Experience

How English as a Mother Tongue influences Foreign Language Acquisition
When I chose this topic, I asked myself what a foreign language is. Is it just a language spoken in another country that's not similar to one's own? Or does a language spoken in another city or district in one's country qualify as a foreign language? According to Wikipedia, a foreign language is originally from another country than the speaker.
