Answer 1

1. We're becoming one global village now. By being multi-lingual, you're making yourself more marketable in terms of the job market. It shows that you have the determination & time to master a language and the open-mindedness to go beyond your comfort zone. You'll also be able to get more international work assignments if you know more languages.
2. Learning another language helps open up your intellectual horizons. You'll have more words about certain concepts.
3. By learning another language, you learn about the culture and you'd be more able to appreciate and understand cultural differences.

About the choices of the language, consider this:
1. English - widely used in the business world
2. French - used in diplomatic circles (one of the official languages of the UN is French)
3. Mandarin - China is becoming an economic powerhouse now.
4. Japan - already an Asian economic power

It's up to you which you want to learn. It would be better if you start off with something that is quite similar to your native language. Or the grammatical structure is similar to your language. For instance, if you're a native English speaker, it's good to start with French since there are a lot of English words which originated from French.

Answer 2

Learn English, Mandarin, Japanese, French isn't a bad language if you want to travel Europe but really first what do you want to do and where do you want to go? Spanish is alwasy good due to North and South America but learn the old Spanish not the this mexican garbage.

So if you ever travel to countries that speak these languages, you can speak to them and you can understand what they're saying. Also because you'll be accepted for better jobs. Maybe the most important languages are Japanese English and French. Not sure. Go and check with several companies and ask them what languages you need to know. They will let you know. Good-Luck!
