Why even bother to learn Spanish?

German? Nah. Finnish? Nah. Russian? Nah. Spanish? Fuck yeah! The career chances man!
It was one of my biggest mistakes trying to learn spanish...

I tried Spanish, it was easy. I didn't enjoy learning it.
That's why I won't learn it. It's so hopelessly boring.

I speak (2) two languages Fluently; Arabic & English.

I can (Pronunciation is kind of good!) Pronounce, understand & communicate basic German (1)

I can pronounce Parisian-Francias & understand & communicate very very very basic french (1)

Other languages aren't worth mentioning ^^

Wait, another Arabic speaker? Me and Desert aren't alone? HA HA! JOY!

That roughly sums up learning all languages ever in a classroom. If you really want to learn a language, you need to be in a place that speaks said language.

English, Finnish as native language, Bad Russian (I keep getting worse at it), and horrible Swedish with Finnish accent that is quite hilarious.

I speak 3 languages.

English and Irish fluently, and French reasonably well.

I sort of know some basic Japanese, but I've lost that.

Do programming languages count? XD

I also speak Irish, but not fluently (Enough to get a fáinne though)

Well I speak English but I can also speak French, Spanish and Irish well enough.

Irish and English battle as my primary languages. I do debating in Irish, and all of my education is through it.

German, native, can also understand Austrians and even Bavarians :P
English, quite good
Français, alright for surviving

Italiano, some minor parts
Polish, just basic, very basic knowledge
Türkçe, few words
Lebanese Arabic, less words
Spanish, tried it, but if you know Italian you dont want to learn Spanish (has a bad sound for me, sorry)

Dutch, can understand some things bcos it sounds like a Northern-German accent (what it actually is ;D)

I can speak German with a very good Russian accent, my friends (and of course, here in Berlin, you also have Russian friends) are repeatedly asking me to do some Communist Commissar or comrade, again and again... ::)

I love getting to know languages, I should learn Welsh Gaelic (bcos of my father's ancestors) but I really refrain from it, because it the writing is like in French, absolutely complicated....says a German ;)

Have you even ever, heard first-hand stories from actual Chinese people?

Don't want to ruin your dreams, but it's awful, to be quite honest.

If you live in the upper class/business circle of the Chinese society (Which is exactly where educated Europeans end up), it's not that bad.
