what language to learn?

Fri Mar 13, 2009, 1:44 AM
As an English speaking American, what languages would you suggest I learn as a second language? It's just for the heck of it with no business or travel plans in the near future.

I thought about Spanish just because there's so much of it here in the states, but most all Spanish speakers in the US speak English. I am considering French, German, or Italian maybe.

Japanese would be cool but I'm afraid it would be too hard and I'd get discouraged. Arabic, Hebrew and Mandarin would be cool too but those all seem hard as well because they don't use the same alphabet as English. Thanks.

Hey no problem! I like your style. I'm in the Bay area too, up in Novato, struggling to find an art job at the moment. Any tips on where to look?
