If you could instantly learn any language, which one would it be?

I'd probably choose the language, Malayalam. It's obviously not one of the most popular languages out there; I could probably make a bet that 9 out of 10 people have never even heard of it. But, a lot of my older relatives immigrated from India, and I feel empty when I can't communicate with them in their native language.

I would prefer Spanish, they say it is the language for rich & high class people, & also it is the 2nd of the most demanded language in the form in bussiness. but it is more better to learn a lot of language because there are a lot of opportunities are coming to you.

It would be Italian. My Grandmother spoke it and I loved the sound of the language. One of my lifelong dreams is to live in Italy for a year so that I can meet relatives still in Italy and explore my roots. Definitely going to have to learn how to speak some Italian before I can make that dream come true. Good luck. I hope that you do get to learn to speak Malayalam. Perhaps your older relatives can teach you.
