I would definitely pick the same language as you. Where I live, at least %30 are Hispanics, they all speak Spanish. I guess most of them only comfortable to speak Spanish to each other, other than other language. So, if you business advantage, speaking Spanish might be one of the advantage over others.

I'm the opposite of you, Seyboy. lol Spanish is definitely not on my list of languages to learn. It just doesn't hold that much appeal to me. I'd rather learn German, Russian, Latin, and continue to brush up on my French. :D

I learn English as it's incoporated in my school education and there's no other options. I pick French as my second foreign language since I do love French litterature, cinema an other various arts. And French is used as working languages in many international organizaitons. So does spanish but its prononcation is too difficult for me.

Living in NY Spanish is the second language so it would definitely be Spanish. I know a little Spanish . . enough to ask certain questions but I would love to be fluent in it. I also know a little Italian for I have done alot of traveling in Italy. And I think if I was able to master the Spanish language, Italian would be easy to become fluent in. What I love about those languages is the way you hear a word is exactly the way it is spelled. English has too many rules and regulations that don't make sense and I think the English language has way too many ways to say the same thing that it makes it harder to fully master another language! Hebrew (Aramaic) is another language I would like to learn so I could read the Old Testament without having to look at the transliteration.

If I could, I would learn Urdu…its one of the languages of India, spoken mostly in the muslim-dominated areas. It is one of the sweetest language I have ever come across…steeped in culture and courtesy. There are some gems of literature written in Urdu which cannot be enjoyed in translation…I would like to read them in original.

I chose to learn French and German,the large reason is that my son wanted to learn the two foreign languages.However,the syntax of the language of these two complex than English,especially in terms of the number of changes have a corresponding number of syntax changes in phrase.
