Every language in the world :P

But that gets confusing, if i have to choose a few, probably perfect mandarin (it's my first language but I want perfection like my dad :P and the ability to write), french and japanese.

This is just like instruments >_> I want to learn a lot of instruments XD

I will go for Malay. :) I dunno why I always wanted to learn Malay. Maybe if I know Malay, I will not get cheated by Taxi driver in Malaysia.

Well I could learn any language I want... This isn't the year the internet started.

But I would like to know French. I had studied it 2 years in highschool, but was lazy and just barely passed it.

Latin, Spanish or Gaelic. I really don't want to learn french, we have to leran it every learn until Grade 10, and we don't really learn how to speak it, but more of how to congigate(sp?) verbs. *sigh*

Edit: Also some useless but cool languages I wanna learn.

Computer Code (010100101)
Elvish
and Al-Bhed

Also I really need to practice my coding skills this Summer, I used to be really good at HTML, but I've forgotten everything because I haven't used it in awhile. And I need to learn CSS and Javascript.

I'd like to reach fluency in Japanese and French, since I can already speak them fairly well.

If I could just wake up knowing a language, I'd have to say Spanish, Swedish, or Russian. Spanish because it would be incredibly useful in my area, Swedish because it's interesting and not terribly common (not even an option at my university), and Russian because I'm interested in Russian culture. Chinese also ranks pretty high up there, although I'll admit I don't know which would be better to learn, Mandarin or Cantonese. Arabic would be great too, since there's obviously a need for good translaters.

In other words, I would be happiest if I woke up one day and could speak 10 languages. ^_-

I could see some use in learning Italian. I wouldn't just nod and smile when with my uncles and aunts then.

I want to learn French, Japanese, and maybe Latin for the heck of it. I'd also maybe want to learn how to read in Russian, and just get a better grip on the language.

Japanese, because I find Japan and its culture interesting. I hope to travel there someday. :)

It'd also be nice to speak Spanish fluently.
