Ironically, I already know C++ and a good chunk of Java after working on a competitive robotics team in High School. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Self-bump, cuz the thread is getting beat out by shitposting threads and is finding itself pretty fucking low down on the catalog.

Korean is pretty easy an japonese id the most highly functional language
Japonese and Chinese kanjis can be hard to understand but with time and practice you will learn
I'm done with west languages
I speak Portuguese Dutch German English japonese
At a more low level Chinese and Korean

I want to learn Mandarin, but I will likely bail out of learning to read and write. The number of speakers and the curiousity of learning a tonal language wants me do this.

For Science the

Japanese is the best non-European Language.
>
Anglos are the best of West.
Japan is the best in Asia.

Most of Europe (except Russia) uses English for Scientific Communication & Diplomacy.
>
Demmand for French & German is high for Business in Europe.
Spanish & Brazilian Portuguese for Latin America & Iberia.
>
Japan, Korea, China & Taiwan dominates Hardware manufacture.
Japanese isn't useful only for Animes.
Korean isn't useful only to watch their TV & listen their Music.
Chinese hasn't much enterteinment, but China is the US largest trade partner.

Arabic used to be useful to work in MidEast Oil Industry, However the Jobs disappeared after the current Oil Industry Crysis due to the
Low Price of Oil.
>
20% of most Educated & Rich Pajeets speak English.
No need to speak with the poorest 80%.
Learning Hindi is a waste of time, unless you wanna live in India.
>
As India, the same apply to Southeast Asia & Africa. The Educated speak English.
Learning local languages there is a waste of time unless you intend to live there.

It's a video and two books. What books you'll need are in the video. The "six rules" covered can be applied to any language with a hefty amount of adaptation and rescheduling the timing, hence why I said I can learn any one language in a years time rather than six months.

C++ sucks. If he's going to learn programming languages he should learn x86 assembly, C, and Prolog.

As for natural languages, Latin in mandatory. Skip Spanish. Go with Russian or Mandarin as the third/fourth language.

>more spanish speakers than english
this world is sad

>>9160742
Then you get to China and realise that most people there do not use Mandarin but are using other things like Hunan and Cantonese.

>>9160449
Arabic is going to be the world language very soon, so you better learn it.

Chinese
>make money, amaze virtually everyone
Spanish

hardly anyone knows C++, and it's not even that useful of a skill. you can just use an IDE with code completion. and no, being able to write a C++ program doesn't mean you know C++. one can write a program in any language if you have google and an IDE for it which supports code completion
