Expert In Two Languages - Page 2

Only two languages? Thats harsh.
I'm already fluent in English. I've learned bits and pieces of Spanish and German. I would like to learn more about those. I would love to learn Italian, mainly because its the most beautiful language in the world. I would like to learn Esperanto because I want to be in international business someday, and I think Esperanto will become one of the primary business languages.
I have a great love for languages, especially ancient ones (perhaps from my love for history).

Two languages... Well I really love languages and I've studied French, German and Irish Gaelic, and I'm in college working on a degree in Japanese so it's a tough choice. I love languages, but I'd have to say the most useful ones would have to be English and Japanese.

As much as I'd like to learn Gaelic, it's not spoken by many people anymore, but I'd hate to see it die out.

This is easy. I interact with Taiwanese in my job and would love to learn Mandarin Chinese. They have these little sidebar meetings and I totally do not get anything of what they are saying...very frustrating. The other without a doubt is Korean. I go to Korea a lot on business and my wife is Korean. She has the benefit of understanding all of what I say, but when she talks to her family on the phone I understand very little of it! ARRRGH.

I am learning Japanese. HOWEVER, very slowly!

I speak romanian (of course), hungarian, english and a little french. I would love to master my english (language nr. 1) and learn spanish (language nr. 2).

I would first like to master my own language so that I could know all words and their proper usage and spelling. And also it would be neat to know interesting new ways to formulate sentences (kind of like old english) with the additional grammatical rules I would learn. I could be even more long winded then I am currently . The second language I would like to know is Japanese. I would be able to watch Anime without subtitles and it would be very interesting to visit a culture so completely different from my own without being limited by a language barrier.
Japanese looks so complicated so I chose instead to learn Latin because of its relative "ease" and the fact that I romanticise about antiquity. But with the Japanese language I could get the antiquity combined with the practicality of knowing a language that is spoken outside of the Vatican.

Eh? Well... if I could choose beforehand, I would say English and Chinese (but I already speak these... how stupid I am sometime) for a very clear reason. If you want get anywhere in the fashion world (buying, sell, trade) China is place to buy your material in bulk. And who better to do haggle than you yourself? You know exact what you want to buy yourself and China will give you very good price for goods for you to be shipping back. Shipping back to America, where fashion matters! ^_^

My native language is English (and I would probably benefit from an english speech class in order to learn to speak more eloquently and slow down a bit), but the two languages I'd pick would be first, French, since I'm going into French education and I think it is a beautiful and fun language, and second would be Spanish because my husband speaks spanish after serving a mission in Chile. I always say to him, wouldn't it be nice if we both spoke the same language? and he says, we do - ENGLISH. But still.....

Hebrew and Judeo-Arabic.

Why? All the books I'd like to read are in either of the two languages.
