If you could, would you?
June 10, 2014 at 2:30 pm
So I am working on learning my 5th Language, my wife and I started learning Japanese together, we watch more Japanese shows and movies than english.

Anyhow after getting into it, we started to have a lot of fun and fell in love with the language.

If you could learn a new language which would it be and why?

Is it for practical reasons? Fun? Or just because?

Latin. I love the language.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?

The language of love. I somehow get this feeling that it could be really useful, but... I can't seem to get the hang of it without a practice partner Sad The exercises just feel weird absent the human element...

I'll have a look, I sucked at trying to learn french but German seems to stay in my mind easier. Perhaps it just because I like it more.

What is the language of love? French? the Language of Spain I heard was also the language of love?

German is a beautiful language too, but most english speakers have not heard German love songs, so every language is pretty in it's own way.

But if you mean french I tried it too in class never could grasp it :/

I would love to learn additional languages. In my neighborhood in Queens I hear Chinese, Korean, Russian, Arabic, Italian, Greek, Hebrew, and French. I can get by in Spanish which is also frequently spoken here so I'm not sure which I would choose first. Maybe being exposed to so many languages a compelling reason will present itself.
