If you could be instantly
fluent in one other language that you currently do not read or speak, which
would it be?
I would say Chinese! I think Chinese is one of the biggest
powerful languages you should know for the future so that will hopefully make
me a bit more valuable in the future when they take over.
The next would probably be Spanish. Hence, I can
honestly say that I really do not like their sound system and the way they
pronounce words.
In fact, before I came to California I had never thought
about Spanish language!
If I could speak Spanish, I would avoid misunderstanding with
people here.
Some people start a conversation with me in Spanish.. when I reply in English they get very angry !

Spanish certainly would be very useful to know here in Southern California. I wish I could remember and speak more of it!
ReplyDeleteReally? They come up to you and speak in Spanish? I somewhat understand how you feel because I have many Chinese people come up to me and strike a conversation in Chinese. Unfortunately, I know very few Chinese words. Hence, they figure it out soon enough that I cannot communicate with them.
ReplyDeleteYes, as Robyn wrote, learning Spanish especially down here in Southern California would be VERY useful!
yeah ! I had a lot of situations with spanish speaker.. I also had few situations with Persian !
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you Najd, especially if you wanna start a business. I think in future the world will spake Chinese. Money money money
ReplyDeleteI think you are right Najd. Chinese is the future language in business world, but it is very hard language. you can start learning Chinese now because we have a lot of Chinese friends here ;D
ReplyDeleteIndeed!
DeleteYeah totally. Chinese is very hard, and we also have a lot of accents. Basically, every Province (State) has their own accent. But I think learning Chinese will bring you surprises. Enjoy it!
