i have an Azerbaijani friend who knows 6 languages. He told me that he will start learning French.... oh my God he doesn't need all these languages in his work, he made me think about being like him but i don't have his skills :-(
actually people on yahoo answers are great..... you made me think about it seriously although i don't have enough money.

its never too late - they day you stop learning is the day you can plant a flower over your head. Language is one of the best carrer choices you can make - I'll always hire someone who is multi-lingual over someone who only speaks one.

Why? You already speak 3 different languages. Are you planning on becoming a translator or something. Most people have a hard enough time speaking one language fluently. There is an island near Africa that people speak in clicks of there tongue. Now that would be fun to watch, how about that? It would drive my dogs nuts though because they would think it is someone knocking on the door but what the heck you only live once. Think of the fun you could have at the grocery store when you ask where the peas are with a knock, knock, knocka, knock, knoc, tic and weeeeeeeeeeeee. Bet you will get lots of attention.

Anyone can learn a new language at any age given the will to do so. But in order to retain that language, you must use it along with the other 3 languages you know actively. This has been the real failure in my attempt to learn a second language.

15 is a fine age to try and learn a language, if you are determined then you will be fine. Arabic is one of the most commonly spoken languages and its not that difficult to learn. Russian, is a fine choice as well, I have a Russian friend and its a beautiful language indeed as is Arabic. Unfortunately, I haven't heard of "Rosetta Stone". But give it a shot maybe it will be helpful. if not there are usually clips on youtube and books that you can buy as well as websites. I hope this helps, good luck ! =)

Knowing English well already puts you ahead of many. Knowing three languages is very impressive. Your 'language' center in your brain is already 'wired' to be more flexible if that makes sense. I'm older than you and learning a second language, so no, you can do it if you desire it.

Not at all.
The fact that you already know 3 languages should mean that a 4th language should come quite easily to you.
What are your current languages and which language are you considering adding?
Certainly, the easiest time to learn languages is in childhood but it seems to me that your brain is already hardwired for lingual variety so, I say, GO FOR IT!

It's never too late. And if you already know three it should be easier for you than the average person to pick up another language. Go for it!
