Depends on what you want to do with your life.

I'm an EMT in Phoenix, so Spanish is a good choice for me.

at the moment i'm learning finnish and since it's considered one of the hardest languages to learn in the world (2nd to mandarin chinese) due to its complex grammatical structure, other languages especially in the Germanic language group seem relatively easy to pick up. I can safely say that I can read and understand (though screw speaking) swedish, norwegian, danish, german and dutch.

but what sucks is that i learned spanish when i was in high school in the US and i constantly mix up spanish words when speaking finnish! i don't know why... :p

I have always been fascinated with other languages.  Actually, language in general.  I've been thinking about taking some etymology classes just for the hell of it.

One day I hope to be able to fluently speak a minimum of 5 languages.  Since I've quit smoking weed, this goal seems to be much more attainable :laugh:

German was probably the easiest language I've ever studied.  I never really thought to check out Dutch, I'll have to give that a go as well.  I don't like Spanish too much, but I suppose it's a necessity in todays world.

:cheers: to mutilingual people.

Actually, I like watching some of their shows, despite only being able to understand about 10% of it. Theyre so freakin weird, always with midgets and 40 year-olds in school children outfits, I'd like to know what the hell they're talking about.

Of course, I can see how this isn't really any kind of motivation for most other people to learn a entire language.

Learn Japanese! It's way easier than Chinese. It's non-tonal so you don't sound like a dying bird when you speak. The grammar follows an almost mathematical pattern with very few exceptions. It makes a lot more sense than English.

The japs have great slang too!

I suppose that would be the appropriate language for "daimyo" to learn.

understood...but i was using the whole "ALALALALA" thing yeeeears ago...before anyone even knew who mencia was...fuck mencia....he ripped my style...everyone who knows me irl thinks im a straight forward, tell it like it is, son of a bitch....and that im in general a asshole...i like it that way...i can say what i want...when i want..and could give a fuck less who i offend...when its something im passionate about...shroom talk as far as cultivatin goes..im laid back..but politics and stuff..i get all hyper..

back to the topic...LEARN ARABIC! ALALALALALA!

well obviously, if you are planning to move to india, it would make sense to learn hindi (or, really, the language of whatever state you were moving to). but out of that list, i'd say learn swedish and go to scandinavia to hit on women. or, really, learn danish so you don't sound like a puss while you are there :grin:
