Re: Yay, I'm learning more languages!

Sounds like fun...what languages are you learning?   I notice you have another forum post about learning Greek over here:

Learning another language can be very helpful if you do any traveling.  Plus, it can really help you expand your vocabulary (if you study Greek or Latin).

Re: Yay, I'm learning more languages!

I believe that Common_Sense is referring to the fact that the post gives no extra information. Although, that still wasn't a nice way to put it...  hmm

Anyway - congrats! I wish I could learn German and Italian - I know a little bit of Italian, and I speak French pretty well. I'm not allowed to start learning another language formally until I'm almost 15, though, so I have just under a year and a half to wait... I could learn it informally, but I learn better when I have a teacher who can correct me on grammar, pronounciation and suchlike, rather than an audio tape, which... can't. Good luck!  smile

Lucky!

I have to learn Japanese. It's not much fun.... But it'll probably be worth it later in life.

Maybe... So, TPCK, what languages are you learning? At first, when I read the title, I thought you were learning programming languages...

Re: Yay, I'm learning more languages!

I'm in Spanish 1 right now.  I'm planning on taking one more year of Spanish, and then starting German.

Right now I'm focusing on Afrikaans.

Then I might learn Dutch...

Cool! In school, we choose whether to learn French or Spanish (for 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th), so I chose Spanish  tongue
