What foreign language would you want to learn?

[Abrisey]

Do you think learning a third language(or second in case English is your first) is valuable or why bother as pretty much Everyone speaks English nowadays? Which foreign language is most beneficial to learn? If you could learn any language in the world which language would it be?

You're right, English is a very often-shared language around the world. Having said that, in today's world, ABSOLUTELY learning a 2nd or 3rd language is valuable.  Which one depends on what you want to accomplish – for instance, if you're in business and want to expand to Asia, I'd buckle down and learn Mandarin. Here in the US, it's often helpful to know at least *some* Spanish – helps to communicate with Spanish-speakers who are still working on their English.

 

Are you considering learning another language? What would you use it for?
