Reinforcing all the people who say a second language is not remotely necessarily in Switzerland, or anywhere in the west. Only places you might desperately need the language are train stations and airports and so on -- exactly where the employees will probably speak English anyway. Also, ever been in a train station? Ever used a ticket machine? Ever ordered off a menu, for that matter? In the west all of these things are uniform. You don't need to know that 'Biglietteria' means ticket office to know that it is in fact a ticket office. Etc.
