or should I learn another language that I did not put and why?

hmmmm, learn Latin. It's an ancient language that many other laguages that are used today have been derived from, including Italian. So, you would be opening yourself up to learn and understand other languages by just learning one. It will also help you with english. If you know some prefixes and suffixes in latin that are very common in the english language, you will find that you don't need your dictionary as much as you think you do, especially when dealing with health and scientific terms.

Yes.  I mix French and Spanish sometimes.  It's hard to just forget the other and focus on one.  I really don't have any advice.  You asked the same question that I was thinking about asking.

Yeah, I'd say don't worry about it, because they're probably not talking about you at all. I speak another language at work with my friend as well as English and we're not bad mouthing anyone.  Well, okay, we might badmouth the establishment, but nobody personally.  Or, go try to learn the language or show interest in it. They'll probably be flattered and then you can be friends!  We're all just people no matter what language we speak.

I'd say hang around people at school who speak that language. You can also take classes. Like Irish said, the older you are, the harder it is to learn.

First, study the language. That is the most important thing. After you know the language, you can go on to more stuff.

I would love to answer your question but I am afraid I do not speak this language.

I studied this language when I was just 15 because of my mother's orders and its easy actually. Its like learning english minus the correct grammar. \n\nBut the thing is you have to practice or use it frequently or else you will be forgetting it. But don't worry, handouts are also provided. \n\nHave fun.

ok well heres what i see. private schools teach second language early on like in Middle school. and most always it is spanish. however, in public schools i believe they dont teach it until highschool. and by then you can choose what language to take. it doesnt have any negative effect. only positive. helps in future a lot for communications. especially if you live in California haha

Nothing is impossible to learn if you are committed to it.  Search out people who speak the language, explain to them what you are learning and why...most of them will gladly help you.

It's totally yur choice. if u think u want 2 learn german then go ahead. My advice is 2 learn both languages as both will prove to be useful.

Depends upon what you think is beneficial to you or maybe your job. \n\nSpanish-It's different from country to country, but that is the language that we hear more often in the USA and it's good to know it.\n\nChinese-China will become the next world power. It's up there with India. If you want to get chosen from a lot of colleges, jobs, and know one of the most spoken languages in the world, go for it. Might be hard to get in a highschool. So if you want to learn it you would have to start in college, or go abroad for a year(which is amazing!) Also, knowing this language wows everybody\n\nFrench-Same as spanish. They speak in Africa, France(duh), it's a pretty funky french in Canada, and some islands have it.\n\nThen I would say Hindi, Arabic, German, American Sign, and Russian Languages, would all go to the next spot, because not only are they unique, but they also will get you a high spot in jobs someday. Problem. You are still in highschool. My school is fortunate enough to offer German, but some don't. \n\nIf your mom could teach you the philipine language while you are learning another language, that will better inhance a big plus sign with the colleges. As long as you're doing a good job with them. The more languages you know, the better the chances are that you will get more money. :-) hope this helped!!

Latin is great from an intellectual standpoint. But if you want to learn an alternative language for productivity and business purposes, Chinese, Japanese, and Spanish are probably the best languages right now to learn and each has its own reasons. Spanish obviously for businesses based in the southern part of the US, Japanese for big and well established businesses, and Chinese because the economy over there is exponentially expanding and upstart businesses there will probably become fortune 500 within 2 years. Its a matter of opinion really.

You have a great idea, but I do think then, that two dictionarys may be required.\n\nI'd bet that this would sell.  What you have come to understand is that from our own childhood we learn our language in "categories", ie Family conversation, Travel, in sub categories, ie, transportation, restaurants and food, shopping, -automobile parts, etc, , entertainment,  business dealings, tech, machinery, etc etc etc\n\nYou have a great idea for learning any foreign language......a step at a time relating to current circumstances.\nJust do it.  It will take time, but on a spread sheet, EXCEL, you can do it from an existing dictionary.\nKudos

Learning another language will not hurt.  Python, in particular, is more easily extendable than PHP (PHP requires extensions written according to some very specific rules, while Python can integrate with general-purpose libraries).  \n\nAs to your Web site, do you know a good hosting company that supports Python?

I learned Spanish when I was in my thirties, and it has opened up my world immensely. With every new language I learn (Portuguese and Hebrew are next on the list, and I already speak English, French, and German), I can communicate with so many more people, thus increasing understanding.\nI have worked in milieux where I have spoken French (a bank in Montreal), Spanish (midwifery training in Texas), and now German (serving the German-speaking immigrant population as a midwife), and it is challenging and thrilling to work and live in a language other than my mother tongue.\nI thank my parents at every opportunity for exposing me to languages at a young age - it is an inestimable gift.\n\n(also, of all the languages I have learned, Spanish is by far the easiest!)

This is probably the most intelligent question I've seen on here all night. I agree with you. I'm a foreign language teacher and my take has always been that when you travel to another country you should at least pick up a little of the language to use with the locals. When you decide to LIVE in a country, you need to learn the language. Language and culture are so closely related that you can't fully assimilate unless you learn the language.

Everything is relative from your mother tongue. You could say that Spanish is easy for you if you speak Portuguese but it might be not so easy for English speakers. Gaelic is such a small language that is really worth learning just so you can say you speak a rare language. GO FOR IT!!
