I think that languages are like passports......you can never have too many of them. I studied spanish with a private tutor for a couple of years, and it was a fantastic decision.

I chose Spanish because it's the second-most native spoken language in the world (Mandarin #1), an official language of the UN, and a gateway romance language.....shares grammar/vocabulary rules with languages like Italian and French.

Currently taking Spanish in University in order to shake off the rust (it's been a few years....) and improve my skill. I'll look at French next.
