| reply to theman23 Re: Second Languages
Fluent in French and some Spanish. Reading no problem but my writing sucks. I can pick up parts of Italian as well mainly due to many friends who speak multiple languages.
With everyone I know I should be much more fluent in various languages but its really tough to learn other languages later on in life. I wish I could speak Russian, Chinese, German, Arabic and so on. Maybe one day. -- The co-operative and the selfish are equally successful at getting what they want. - The Economist, January 2005 |

If you look at how the backbone of this country has degraded because US companies have allowed the Chinese to design, manufacture molding & produce parts for them, thus eliminating the work force needed here; this is where learning Chinese becomes a must.
