Currently using Busuu for Spanish, German, French, and Russian and would like advice on other languages to take up learning whether Busuu has them or if not I’ll then use Tandem.

      Learning Japanese since about a year now. This language is so beautiful. It’s also a ton of work.

      I can really recommend jpop to, I’ve been hearing jpop almost Mon stop since a while now.

      That feeling when you understand the cryptic hieroglyphics that are kanji, and stumble upon native material which can actually be read. It’s just something else.

      For me, where as English is something written on a napkin, Japanese is a carefully drawn picture (kanji) on a fine letter.

      It’s also great if you like slapping words together to make new ones (I’m a German, so of course I like that)

          Yeah, for some reason, they like to steal our words. I think it’s cut how they butcher German and English, but it can be hard to understand if you know those languages better than Japanese.

      If we’re talking programming I recommend Rust. Besides that, regex is the foundation of formal languages and really useful too.

    Learning a European language, especially from a country that had colonised other countries will be useful. French and English, for the most part. Learning a romance language will also help if you were to touch Latin someday

    I’d learn Mandarin next since there’s a lot of speakers and Asia is a fun place. Japanese after that if I have the time. That would be my personal journey if I ever learn any other languages, but we’ll see

    You must be some kind of savant to learn 4 languages at once. I can barely wrap my head around English.
