Posted October 26, 201114 yr Have you ever studied a foreign language? Personally, I have. My first language is Portuguese, but I study English, and a bit of Spanish. So... "Yes, and I still study it nowadays!"
October 27, 201114 yr Way back in middle school we had to take a class that was an introduction to both French and Spanish and although I've never taken studied French since, I still subconsciously blurt out something French on occasion. In high school they convinced me that I would need two years of a foreign language to get into a good college so I took two years of Spanish. I can pronounce words okay and can conjugate verbs and stuff. However, I can't understand somebody that's fluent they just talk too fast and my mind can't keep up but if it's written I can do alright. I've enjoyed trying to learn some Japanese on my own; thanks anime, and would love to try and learn it fluently. Latin is becoming pretty rare and could be fun. However, having just spent the last five years becoming fluent in a half dozen computer languages I’m not sure I have the patience for any human languages for the foreseeable future.
October 27, 201114 yr Learning Japanese. Even though it's not foreign, I'm learning Tagalog also (I'm Filipino ^.^)
October 27, 201113 yr studied Spanish for 2 years in high school and off to the side still learning japanese.
October 27, 201113 yr im studying english, which i like very much, and swedish, that i think is useless. i also study japanese at home.
October 27, 201113 yr ive already learned greek ancient greek english and german now i want to learn spanish and japanese
October 27, 201113 yr Latin. Worst class out of my freshmen and sophomore years of high school. i completely agree. i was a sophomore and junior though. hated every minute of it. i probably wouldnt have minded if the teacher wasnt so incompetent.
October 27, 201113 yr I do. I just graduated from my English course, but I'm still unhappy with my english It just sucks. But at the moment, I'm slowly learning japanese at my own >3 Is it necessary to say that it's pretty hard to do this? T^T After I learn japanese, I plan on learning german, so I'll be able to fully speak five languages (Portuguese-Brazil (it's my native language), English, Spanish, Japanese and German) And how does the English language "suck"? It's the most popular and most used language in the entire world. You should feel proud and lucky. English is considered one of the hardest and most difficult language to learn.
October 27, 201113 yr And how does the English language "suck"? It's the most popular and most used language in the entire world. You should feel proud and lucky. English is considered one of the hardest and most difficult language to learn. I said that MY english sucks. I don't like the way I speak, the way I write. I fell that it can be even better, but I don't know if I begin another english course or keep learning japanese...
October 27, 201113 yr I've been attempting to learn Spanish for 3 years now; still can't form a single sentence in Spanish. I don't even want to learn any foreign languages expect from English, but the school system is forcing me too.
October 27, 201113 yr I'm trying to learn Japanese. From books. It might take a while and I'm sure I have quite an accent. A Canadian accent, not Japanese. I started a few days ago. I know one greeting, the words "autumn leaves" and "maple tree", one kana word for and, again, and also, also I can count up to five in kana on-yomi and kun-yomi, and in kanji. Also, the first five months. Just add gatsu to the end of an on-yomi number.
