If you do learn foreign language(s) for leisure, let's share!

Apparently for me, I'm really passionate towards learning languages. I'm not working to become a linguist by occupation but it's purely out of interest. Learning languages simply enhances the quality of communication among speakers and users of other languages and there's just so much to learn about! Be it Asian or European languages, I'm absolutely intrigued!

Let me start the ball rolling. I'm currently still furthering my learning of German, Spanish, Thai and Tagalog. Given the diverse cultural exposure, I'm proficient in English, Chinese (and dialects), Malay, Indonesian (and dialect).

Languages which I hope to learn are: Japanese, French, Korean and Russian.
I feel that the more languages you learn, the more easier learning becomes, especially if there is a good mix of Asian and European languages. It's like opening up and training the flexibility of your left and right brain!

What about you?!

While I am typically lazy about other languages I do think there is a very good case for English to be adopted universally. There are probably a few millions of chinese who would disagree but diversity is the spice of life, and they are taught English in school anyway!

There's this line in Ocean's 13 where Casey Affleck said "danger is my middle name" in mexican. I think it started with peligro es mi... or something like that.

Any takers?

It can't mean "this is stronger" because the two words wouldn't agree in gender. The best I can do is "(I am) stronger than this" (ablative of comparison) but that leaves an unanswered question, stronger than whom or what?
The coat of arms depicts four D-shaped objects, each consisting of a short stick-like thing with its ends connected by a loop of chain. They don't represent the letter D because the straight part is horizontal with the loop of chain above. Any ideas as to what these might be? Some instrument of torture? Primitive handcuffs?

Anyway, it's a shiny , silver fabric. Anyone has any ideas what it might be? Thanks.

Plato - " Only the dead have seen the end of war"

I have found online translators, but it doesn't get all the words. Going for how it might have actually been written. Although I believe it was in greek ( classical) to begin with.

Are we a land of dummies?

In writing, especially on the Internet, I see people write "loose" when they mean "lose". For instance, "She never looses her smile."
THIS IS WRONG!
It should be, "She never loses her smile."
Loose means "not tight".
Lose means "out of sight"
Get it? Got it? Good!

Then there is the use of the word "myself" when "me" or "I" is correct. The only time a person should use the word "myself" is if the person uses the personal pronoun "I" earlier in the sentence.
People say, "James gave a doughnut to Frank and myself."
UGHHH!!!

Another horrible mangling of the English language is the misuse of the phrase, "I could not care less." Many people say it incorrectly, as follows, "I could care less."

You have to put the word "not" in there or you lose the intent of what you mean to say. If you do not use "not" then you are essentially saying that you do care, but that it is possible for you to care less than you do.
