If you could instantly become fluent in any foreign language which one would it be?

Woah tu hables espanol! Mucho gusto

Mucho gusto mi amigo / amiga

Si yo hablo un poco de espanol, pero no mucho. Lo siento por no responder a tu mensaje mas temprano, yo no lo vi.

Fair

I'd say possibly Latin. It would help your understanding of many Latin based languages such as Spanish, Italian, French and Portuguese. You wouldn't be able to SPEAK these languages, but you could get a lot of understanding through context and recognising the root Latin words.

This is late but- Cantonese! Im really interested in the culture and if I could become fluent then it would help in my research and also help me get along with people :biggrin:

Hey Bible_slug, Cantonese speaker here. I am late but I am curious in what part of Canton culture you are interested in. (It is just Canton/HK culture reached its peak popularity around 70s-ish and not much people are as interested about it now.) Feel free to ask me any questions! :smile:

Can include English if English is not your first language.
I'm excluding languages as Lorem Ipsum, sarcasm, punning, slang, trolling etc
Only name one language 🤷🏾*♀️.

Definitely would be mandarin, it's spoken a lot more than I thought it was, plus learning all the characters would be sooo cool!!! If I had to sit a language A level / BTEC it would definitely be either in mandarin, japanese or korean! Absolutely love the characters!!

I’d love to learn Urdu so I can speak to my grandma without having to turn to my mum asking how to say xyz 😞. I can understand much more than I can speak it.
I’d also love to learn Arabic ❤️
