If you had to learn a second LANGUAGE who would it be and why?  

i would love to learn, French and Italian. that would be something! :)

Well in High School I chose to learn French and I really enjoyed it. If I were to go ahead and fully learn a second language I'd pick French! I would already have a head start :-)

If I could, I would learn Urdu…its one of the languages of India, spoken mostly in the muslim-dominated areas. It is one of the sweetest language I have ever come across…steeped in culture and courtesy. There are some gems of literature written in Urdu which cannot be enjoyed in translation…I would like to read them in original.

I would like to learn french as i've heard that this is one of the most acceptable languages in the world and I tried to learn it& find it interesting.I think I can learn it with minimum hard work.

spanish is a difficult language as well but for me since am new here in holland, i wanted to learn the dutch language which is really needed for me to easily find a work.

He seyboy uve been absent for a while ;p well ill defenitely go for spanish as second language but i already know it so i guess that leaves italian open for me hehe well i guess i just want to learn to impress one of my freind.

hi seyboy,
actually i should say that i am going to lean my third language.i learnt Tamil as my first language,as i am a native of that language.Then at school i learnt English as my second language and now this year i am going to learn French as my second language at school,so its the third to me.

I chose to learn French and German,the large reason is that my son wanted to learn the two foreign languages.However,the syntax of the language of these two complex than English,especially in terms of the number of changes have a corresponding number of syntax changes in phrase.

I would definitely learn Spanish. My husband is spanish!
I've heard him and his family speak spanish for the past 6 years
now and I cant speak a word of it. I understand all of it tho.

Living in NY Spanish is the second language so it would definitely be Spanish. I know a little Spanish . . enough to ask certain questions but I would love to be fluent in it. I also know a little Italian for I have done alot of traveling in Italy. And I think if I was able to master the Spanish language, Italian would be easy to become fluent in. What I love about those languages is the way you hear a word is exactly the way it is spelled. English has too many rules and regulations that don't make sense and I think the English language has way too many ways to say the same thing that it makes it harder to fully master another language! Hebrew (Aramaic) is another language I would like to learn so I could read the Old Testament without having to look at the transliteration.
