I posted a question about choosing a language after English...?

Spanish is more commonly used by a growing Hispanic population.  In some parts of the country, it's the main language used, whether you like it or not.  \n\nIn terms of worldwide, my understanding is that English, Chinese and Spanish are the most used languages.  Definitely true in business.

The question is whether those who live here and didn't have expensive ESL education, making them bilingual in Spanish and English, should be expected or required to have any knowledge of that language.\n\nMany would like to be bilingual, but when I went through the LAUSD I could choose French, German or Spanish as my language (I chose French).  Now the program cuts are so severe, our children are only offered Spanish, if that, and many aren't interested in learning Spanish.

Sounds great but how do you plan to study cultural difference without learning their language? You would be better off studying in an english speaking country other than your own. Sure there are some good english speakers in Japan but don't you think that they would be influenced by their experiences with english speakers and the english language and thus not necessarily representative of the broader society? I would give this a miss unless you are bilingual.

Speak/write in the "English" language and someone might/will answer whatever you attempted to ask?!?!

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!!

Do you mean to ask if Yahoo Answers is based on international languages? No, it's not. It's supposed to be an English language forum, although questions about other languages asked in English (for example, "How do you say "hello" in French?" Answer: "Bonjour" or "Salut") are fine. If you're interested in asking or answering questions in another language, however, it's possible that there's another forum for that language. For example, you can find the French language Yahoo Answers forum at http://fr.answers.yahoo.com.

If English is a second language you already have a lot of diversity going for you.   Just describe your live.

Search the net and find out the strengths and weaknesses of each language, as well as their "intended" purposes. Compare these to your personal needs and preferences, and make your decision based on that. Nobody can make that choice but you, so you are probably the best person to do the research.\n\nRawlyn.

I think as the question was asked in a country I would have answered as you did.  Perhaps the asker of this question meant something different from the way the question reads.  Perhaps the askers does not have a firm grasp of the English language.

Ok,Ok.! So why not, "If you would like to continue in any language other than English, press"...etc. Then proceed as though silence is consent...to proceed in English.  Aw, Shucks! Those unfortunates who hadn't understood the admonition to "press' would have to find help from someone who understands that to function in the United States of America one needs to know the lingo of the land...as we do when VISITING the land of their language and visiting is what they are doing if they disdain learning at least the basics of our language. Bo-do-dody-o-day!

The two languages are closely related, but that doesn't mean that they are very similar. I wonder if you are just looking for an easy language to learn (for whatever strange reason) you would do better to choose a Latin language like Italian and Spanish (fairly easy) or French (a bit more difficult). Or German, which is more difficult still, but related to English. the problem with Dutch, if you want to use it to speak to people in the Netherlands, is that so many people there speak fluent English that you will have to study if for an incredibly long time before you speak it better than they speak your language. Not a very rewarding situation.
