Do you speak more than one language?

Asked by Hawaii_Jake (37349points) September 10th, 2011

I speak English and Japanese and a smattering of French and German. I also study Classical Greek as a hobby. Language fascinates me.

Learning a foreign language for the first time actually changed me. I had to think differently. I had to get past the erroneous idea that languages were simply codes of each other, and I had to latch onto the notion that language actually contains the heart of a culture.

Do you speak more than one language? (Yes, sign language counts.)

What are they?

What language are you curious to learn? Why?

If you only speak one, can you explain why? Would you like to learn another language?
