if u had to chose to learn another language what would it be, u can say why if you want?

Answer 1

I'm a native English speaker, yet I much prefer speaking in Esperanto.

Designed to be learned easily, Esperanto is the gateway to many other languages and cultures. The structure is regular and has only 16 gramatical rules with NO exceptions. So instead of learning rule after rule and which ones don't apply here or there, I spend my time absorbing the vocabulary. Check the site below for information on Esperantos' value in learning other languages.

I frequently make this next statement, and I live by it.

"If you can't learn Esperanto, you can't learn any language."

At the very least, if you learn Esperanto, which by the way can lead to the enjoyment of meeting new friends and traveling to new places, you'll at least have that under your belt regardless of how far you decide to take any other languages.
It's not uncommon for a student of Esperanto to become fluent inside of a month, maybe less, if you've the desire.

I really enjoy listening to the original music, clasical, folk, rock, rap, lullabys(sp), Christmas songs, you name it. The folk tends to be the best. Track down groups like Kajto, Merlin, or Kore for starters.

Esperanto is the 65th most printed language in the world, which when you think about it, with only 2,000,000 plus speakers is quite remarkable. There are translations of the classics, and not so classic, as well as a wealth of original material.

The most depressing aspect of dealing with Esperanto is the constant unsupported claims that it has no value. As with anything else, it's use is dependant on how you decide to use it. With over 2,000,000 speakers in the world, there aren't too many places where you won't find it, you just need to look. The internet is the best place to start. The sites below are the best intitial places to investigate the language and it's history. (Yes, it has a history (119 years) and a culture as mentioned above.)

Where Esperanto stands to make its biggest success is in international communications, primarily at the UN and EU, where each respectively spends in excess of $500 million USD annually on translation services alone. Esperanto currently holds observer status at the UN and UNESCO.

The World Esperanto Association (in Esperanto UEA: Universala Esperanto-Asocio) is the largest international organization of Esperanto speakers, with members in 119 countries (as of 2000) and is the official relations office with the United Nations and UNESCO. In addition to individual members, 95 national Esperanto organizations are affiliated to UEA.

Research and make your own conclusions.

Ĝis!

Answer 2

There would be no limited you could learn as Meany as you can!. My younger brother can speak about 20 plus Languages and he did not go to school to learn none of them. He started working on a passinger ship as a welder &. a short wile after he changed to a
stewardest then he become a wine Captin and he been on the ship for meny yrs. and now he speak over twenty plus languages
and it let you move amoung people and they are talking about you
bad and you are laughting @ your self brcause you do not know what they are saying @ all. That is why some country forst you to
speake one longuage and that one is only the one that they know.
That is narrow minded. Instead of them learling to speak other languages or let the languages been thought in school so that if
they do not want to learn other language the children learn others
than the one they already know!>>>>.

Answer 3

Good question, I already know french and english but I would truly love to learn about 7 more languages then I could be an interpreter or some cool job like that. Maybe we should try to make a whole new one that everyone will know; bring the world together wouldn't that be cool.

Answer 4

Good question. Depends a lot on where you live. Here in the US, Spanish is probably the most useful. I started learning Spanish 2 years ago and am what you'd probably call "fluent" now. There are an increasing number of Spanish speakers here, as I'm sure you know if you live here; from your nick name (Switchfoot) I'd guess you may be a Christian. If you are, then, regardless of your position on immigration, you will want to minister to hurting people - like the growing hispanic community.

Contact me personally to talk more about how I learned Spanish in two years.

Answer 5

English is a Germanic language, so it is mentioned to be the simplest language to be taught for English audio system, however I have not attempted it (but?), so I cannot quite provide recommendation there... French is what I discovered in prime college, and I observed it amusing to be taught, although it hasn't been "priceless" to me later in lifestyles, it used to be nonetheless an revel in I do not remorse. Spanish is what I'm operating on now. It's been rough for me, however that's partially since (in line with study) the older you get, the more difficult it's to decide upon up language capabilities...and the truth that I have not been very diligent in research instances or finding out precisely what finding out variety works exceptional for me. I began finding out American Sign Language in institution. I quite preferred it. It wasn't all that rough for me to be taught, and it is some thing I intend to be taught extra utterly quickly. Though it is gaining repute over the final 5 years or so, for those who desire to be taught a much less typical language, this probably what you desire to seem into. I preferred it since I am a "palms-on" learner, and for a few intent, I used to be equipped to memorize the indicators quicker than I any language I've attempted. Latin is well for those who feel you could desire to be taught a romance language later. Romance languages (like Spanish, French, Italian, and a few others) have their roots in Latin, so choosing up new language capabilities on this set is less difficult upon getting the grasp of it. Other than that, Italian or Chinese are rather standard, and so is Greek and Romanian, from what I've heard... Just a couple of suggestions.

Answer 6

Swedish. I took Swedish in college. Det ar jatte bra.

I took it for obvious reasons: with all of the illegal immigrants coming from Sweden, we will ALL be speaking Swedish in the next few years. If you don't speak Swedish, you'll be left out in the dark. Imagine walking down the streets of New York, and all you hear are Puerto Ricans speaking Swedish. How would you feel?

In addition, there is a very good chance the US will be sending troops to Scandinavia to quell the border tension between Sweden and Norway, much of it stemming from the unfortunate "Ikea incident." The intra-Lutheran fighting between these two nations makes Iraq look like child's play.

Bottom line: learn Swedish, connect with the world.

I recommend Rosetta Stone software for whatever language you learn, btw. Jag trivs bast att oppna landskap!

Answer 7

i speak English, Spanish, some German and i´m now learning French. I´d love to learn Arabic, too, because i like the culture and it´d be a great challenge since it involves learning new symbols for letters as well as writing from right to left.

Answer 8

i think i will start learning another language soon...probably Romanian, because a friend of mine who adores this language inspires me more and more..

however, what i would really like to learn (seeing it as an odd idea myself, but still) is the language of the deaf (and probably also the Braille)... it seems so mysterious how they communicate and you do develop other senses and unusual perceptions in this way... just to imagine how the deaf hear, understand and danse to music - absolutely wonderful...

oh, and i would love to learn a language of some african tribe... the one which does not have a written variant... it seems to be totally incomprehensible how they work, for me they are really impressive in their connection to and dependance on nature...

Answer 9

I'd learn American Sign Language.

Answer 10

I Already Speak Very Mild French.. But I Would Love To Speak Spanish.. Or Japanese
