Me and my lady are currently teaching ourselves Chinese using the Pimsleur program.  Going decently so far - definitely not easy though.  It's hard to keep yoruself regimented enough to maintain your studies.

Edit:  Why?  Because azn languages sound amazing - and China is the most important asian economy, and likely will be throughout the majority of my lifetime.




Let me know if you want the Rosetta Stone version, I have it and could make a copy for ya...Maybe do a little trade. I also have a pimsleur language set for Chinese (This is all Mandarin, not Cantonese)

I went to a grade school where curriculum was taught in Spanish so I really had no choice

I took 3 years of Chinese Mandarin in high school. I didn't want to learn Spanish so it was the alternative. I don't remember much.

French because I had to take it in school (Canada) and it's on everything so I just kind of picked it up, somewhat.

German, because I wanted to. Very poor German.

French

it was required at the middle school I went to in Maine (and was the only language option) so I continued to take it up to level 3 in high school

gonna work through Rosetta Stone this summer so I can sharpen my skills to place out of it at the uni I transferred to

English. Originally to be able to watch American TV shows in their original version (French dubbing is usually awful and you have to wait for like a year for them to produce it).

I'm past that trivial motivation now. English is obviously required to read the international press and most of the Internet...

Yeah, same here. I bet your French is light years better than mine.



Meh it's okay. It's useful especially because a lot of the (illegal) parties are in the french side of Belgium.

Nice language but it tends to rust fast with me :blush:

I learned Spanish in high school because it seemed the most logical language to take at the time.  I can still understand quite a bit, but have trouble speaking the language.

I learned Japanese when I was in Japan.  My wife was Japanese, and when in Rome...  I still understand and speak it quite well.

Now I'm working on Thai. I'd like to move there someday. It is much more difficult for me.

Oh, and I teach English, so I kinda had to learn all the rules that most natives are only vaguely aware of.
