Do you want to learn additional languages?

I'm functional in French, but I don't consider myself fluent - I can hold a conversation, and get by. My husband is francophone, so there's a lot of French in the house, and my kids have been learning both languages from birth, so they are fluently bilingual, like hubby. A true asset in Canada.0

I definitely want to become fluent in Spanish---I'm OK at speaking it, and I understand and can read quite a bit of it, but I'd like to be fluent. Simply because where I live, it's a really great job skill to have. Almost all the jobs here require you to be English/Spanish bilingual, or they "strongly prefer" it. I'm happy with the company I work for, but I have a feeling I'd be an even more valuable asset if I could speak Spanish. Sign language too, probably a really valuable skill to have just for practical reasons.
I'd also like to learn French just because it would be cool to know French (also a good language to know should I ever visit Europe), and I took a couple semesters of Italian in college just for fun, and it would be cool to be able to speak it at least moderately well. For no reason other than it would be fun.0 -
I would love to learn
French
Spanish
If you have young kids, encourage them to learn more than 2 languages(speak and read), it is proven in studies kids with multi lingual skills are quick learners
Completely agree. My 5 year old has been learning some basic Spanish, and I plan to continue that with him as I brush up on mine too.0 -
I am learning German right now (livemocha.com) and probably will brush up on my French as my BF wants to go from Germany to France at some point0

I'm looking for Spanish and French natives to improve my language skills, so feel free to add me if you are0 -

I am learning ASL. I'm almost done with my third class (out of four). I'm also currently teaching my 8 month old to sign as well. I speak broken French and I'd love to brush up on that. I also really want to learn Spanish! I'll probably take some classes once I finish grad school.0
-
I would love to re-gain my modest command of Japanese, and then become fluent. ("Use it or lose it," is what happened.) German as well - I took 4 years in high school and 1 semester in college and did pretty well, but again, never used it after that.
I would also love to learn: Spanish, French, Chinese (either Mandarin or Cantonese), Korean, Russian, Italian, Arabic, Latin, Greek...
Basically, just about any language I can get my hands on. If I ever win the lottery, I'm quitting my job to just take college-level language classes. And then travel to the countries that use those languages - see the sights, try the food... It would be AWESOME.0 -
I took and ASL course years ago and was certified level 1 interpreter. As they say "Use it or lose it" and I have lost most of it. I would love to do another course.
I want to learn German, as I am a German citizen but grew up in the US so lost all of that too. Although I do think it is in there in my brain I just have to trigger it.0 -
