>>
>>78221957
german, japanese and chinese, maybe korean instead of chinese
>>
If I keep the languages I speak already (French, English, German), I choose some that I think are hard for me to learn :

- Arab
- Chinese
- Russian

I can teach myself the rest
>>
>>78224244
You ever tried understanding schweizer Deutsch ?
Funny thing is I better understood southern Austrians when they spoke Slovene as when they spoke their variant of German. And I understand German better than Slovene.
>>
>>78223937
No
>>
>>78225076
Then I keep French English and German, thank you very much.
>>
>>78221957
I'd refuse the downgrade, of course.

However, if the genie granted me complete knowledge of a new language, Proto-Indo-European before the Anatolian split, for sure.
>>
I already speak Spanish and English. What other language should I pick? Mandarin? French? German?
>>
>>78225976
What for?
If it's for work you're better served with German and Mandarin.
If it's for culture you're better served with French and German.

Pick German.
>>
Serbian
Bosnian
Croation
>>
Russian
Arabic
Chinese
>>
>>78225976
You speak english already, you don't need to learn anything else
>>
>>78221957
>wants me to unlearn 2 languages
Umm no thanks
>>
>>78221957
I would prefer to speak the two languages I already speak, for my third, I would chose Chinese, as long as it includes all Chinese languages.

>>
>>78221957
I'm ethnically Korean but I don't know the language all that well so I'd pick that first
I'd pick Chinese second because there's a lot of Chinese where I live
Third I dunno. Maybe Spanish

French, and then instead of a third language, just further improve my mastery of English
>>
English because it's universal language
Italian because muh ancestry
Arabic because I always wanted to visit France and Germany
>>
>>78236797
How often do you talk to the Chinese compared to the Spanish?

Picking languages based on their footprint is fucking pointless when 99% of chinks are factory children who will never leave the mainland
>>
>>78241804
I don't talk to people at all though
>>
>>78241927
then why pick based on popularity rather than what offers the best literature
>>
>>78221957
Chinese, Japanese, Korean
#yellow fever
>>
>>78224958
The are still legit German speakers though since every Swiss person can speak, write and understand High German.
>>
Manx Gaelic, Latin and Esperanto

I can already speak German/English/French which is the European master combo but some Asian language would be nice.
