Languages... They're everywhere! In Houston in just one day you run into at least three Spanish speaking people, one Korean speaking person, two Vietnamese speaking people, and many English speaking people. This is a minimal count. I'm sure the excact number is much higher! So this raises the question "should I learn a second language?" Then once you have answered that, the question arises "which language?" People almost always reach for french. And french isn't a bad language... It's just that it is a very common language to learn. why not learn Japanese? It too is an international language! And their are many Japanese speaking people in the world! So why not?
That my friend is what I told my self four weeks ago. When I decided to learn Japanese along with my Korean. (Not to mention that I still have to master my Portuguese.) Do I regret learning all these languages? NO! I use them frequently (not the Japanese; yet!) even though I am not always the best at Korean I am still able to use it to communicate with Korean speaking people. I have only two more languages I want to learn before I am to be basically satisfied; Vietnamese, and Hindi. ( You must be thinking i live on a bonk roll, huh?) Actually, even though it still costs money to learn all the languages. I don't spend more than $500 every 3-4 months. (still kind of expensive...)
Do you remember that saying from childhood " don't judge a book by its cover."? Well same applies to schools. the schools I go to don't have big class rooms, some of them don't even have real walls, (they use curtains to divide the rooms.) they are small rooms with small classes. But like that saying goes, don't judge a book by its cover. I learn the language I want, I make friends, I am supplied with good learning material, and most importantly, the teachers are nice. (they act like you're their family.) So, let me ask you; have you maybe reconsidered learning a language? I hope so!
So yeah, I lectured you all to death.
(sorry!)
But! LAST QUESTION! What is your favorite language?
In and out- ¿나디아?
