In today's society, probably not - in "Unleashed", Rose Ayling-Ellis says it takes the average person about seven years to become fluent. But it's a good dream to have, and if people started learning early enough in life, and valued it enough...
As for the Lombardians, maybe they have some improved sci-fi educational techniques. But at the same time, they clearly don't have the same expectations of their soldiers...
Maybe those subtitle projector thingies are considered a better solution but they're expensive and so they reserve them for the military? And everybody else learns sign language because it's cheaper? That doesn't sound right - always a good idea to go deep into speculative territory about society in soft science fiction ๐
Oh yeah, Unleashed, thanks for the reminder :D
