If there was one language you dreamed of speaking, which would it be ?

[Kale]

it would be japanese for me

[ahmedelebiary]

German for me ??

[Chirithy84]

French

[EternalChaos72]

Japanese most likely. 

[Tyrant-Cynical]

Japanese for sure.  So much animes and games im missing out on.

[Orphioon]

It doesn't have to stay a dream, start doing, there's more then enough resources online, and it can be achieved by as little as 30 minutes of study a day over a long period of time.

[Tosmasta00]

I actually did dream once that i was speaking Japanese fluently the only reason i noticed it was JP because of a few words i actually know.

 

Sure was a fun dream.

 

So yeah that should make it obvious which language i would choose.

[Scorpiio93]

Japanese. I love the way it sounds.

Although, I may start learning French again this year when I start my degree. I'd like to start now (I have a little experience from school) but I'm not sure where to start/ find decent resources

[NanaCheese94]

Spanish. Hearing people speak it is so beautiful. And also it's spoken by a ton of people in many interesting countries I'd like to visit. Unfortunately I already have problems with French, so Spanish won't be easier. Russian would be nice too.

[Bloodytears1666]

German and Japanese. I've started German, but... hard, but not harder than Japanese... or so:).

[Leaderboards]

Personally for me, I wish I can speak @Kale ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[Lava_Yuki]

I'm fluent/ bilingual in Japanese and English already, so as a third language I would like to speak a European language. German seems useful as it's widely spoken and Germany is such a rich country with great healthcare. My job is a doctor so from a career point of view, German would be best as they also speak it in Switzerland. 

[Dr_Mayus]

I think Sign Language would be really awesome. 

[LuciaRosethorn]

Japanese of Course, I started learning some in high school but stopped due to not having the time. I'm hoping one day I can learn it completely and I'm able to play Japanese exclusive games.

[Dav9834]

Since I have had some learning in French, and Croatian. (enough to get me to the bathroom in another country ) 

 

I would like to know Japanese or sign language. Japan is the 3rd largest economy, plus ya know, Otaku. 

 

But there's something about sign language that's hmm... I don't know how to describe it. But "A Silent Voice" sums it up. Such a great movie. Imo better than Your Name. 

[GT__Jedi]

French.  I travel to the Society Islands and West Indies and really need to speak more fluently.

[Marilagi]

Definitely Japanese. This is mostly because I would like to play Japanese games before they get a western release. 

 

I'm not a weeb I swear.

I agree with it being better than Your name. I didn't even find Your name to be all that great either. it was decent for the most part, but like a lot of anime/movies - not my cup of tea. 

[Azelais]

Korean. It'd be fun to visit Korea and to watch Korean films without ever having to read subtitles again (as I'm not big on that). 

 

At first, I was going to say 'French' or 'Russian', but then realised rather quickly that those don't count, because - technically (￣▽￣) - I do speak and understand both. Bad, bad, Badly.

 

In essence: Russian, French >> Japanese, German, English. With not nearly enough >hungry-lefty-crocodiles to express just how difficult French (vocab) and Russian (grammar) are for not making sense. To me. At all.

[Lillia]

Japanese and Korean.

I do understand some Japanese but not nearly enough to be able to fully communicate with a Japanese person.

And about Korean..I don't understand a word haha. 

I plan on visiting South Korea and Japan in the future so I guess there's still time to learn   

[Valyrious]

Japanese, so when people call me a weeb, I can spew out sentences and trigger them even further.

 

Oh, and so I could increase my flexibility and understanding in the Japanese medium.

People that want to learn French... you really don't. I was forced to learn it growing up, and it's not a great language. But maybe that's just the Canadian French. It's not a nice language in my own very biased opinion. When you go through 10+ years of every French teacher being a ♥, you'd probably feel the same.

Normally, obvious answer would be Japanese but... over the years, I've accumulated quite a big knowledge of spoken Japanese.

So if I were to choose now, it would probably be German to broaden my horizons.

 

If it was about writing, Japanese would obviously win

Heh

I guess English can count as European unless Brexit changes that ? Although it is spoken all over the world! 

[Novemberian]

French and Swedish. I get by with them but it bothers me that they're not at the same level as my English although I've studied both for almost 10 years.

 

But if I have to pick a language I have not studied at all, I guess Latin would be my choice although it is not very useful in today's world.

Just this.  Without knowing Japanese, you miss out on some good import games unless they're localized. Sometimes a localization takes another year or 2 after the Japanese release.
