It was Samoset who introduced the Pilgrims to the English-speaking Squanto,

I'm not the brightest crayon in the box and maybe a FReeper can answer my question.

How did Squanto learn to speak English?

“How did Squanto learn to speak English?”

I read that he got dragged off to Europe in a slave ship, found his way to England, and then back home. Presumably, he learned English while in England.
