Which foreign langauge is the most useful?

Hey maximax8! For me important are 2 languages. First is English and second German. English , i think it's clear why it's important, because all entire world speak this language, this language helps make friends, contacts, business , etc. German , because i want to study hear after school :) also this language is very interesting and beautiful :) But there the problem... It's very hard to learn german. There are very difficult grammar. Articles and other. But i'm learning so i hope it will be ok ;) And What languages do you learn/speak? Tell for us too :) My english is bad, so i'm now accustomed to write at the ending this sentence - Sorry for my bad english :D Have a nice day, happy myLotting!!!

I think,English language is International language.In my country,Indonesia,English is prime lesson at school.English language is easy to learn although I can't fluent in English.It's difficult to me to learned when I was student.But,I don't stop learn.I think,it's most useful in working world or like this in Mylot.You know,I learn Arabic Language too.It's more difficult.But I like to learn it.

English is still considered as the most common language used wherever we go. It will always be the language I use to speak with other foreign people. I would never understand Hindi even if I am here for quite some time. I always speak in English. Even if you are a missionary, I am sure you would be speaking English as the major language and yet it will be translated by the local language to where you would be. This is the only language that is most understandable all over the globe. About speaking other foreign language, well I am still learning Hindi and Konkani. But it will be years since hubby and I still talk English at home, not their own language. Although I also teach my hubby my own language which is Tagalog. He can grasp a bit of it too.

Hi maximax8, I think English is the most useful language for it is a universal language, there are so many people who can understand the languge and here in my lot we use the English language.

I live in india and for us english is a foreign language we all try to master in. Now that english is globally the offical language most of the indians here in india are pursuing literary and verbal knowledge on it. I believe that french is the widely spoken languages in the world and so you can learn this language of romance :P But i do see a trend of japanese language. I know many who have learnt this language and i also see a sudden demand for translation from some language (mainly english) to japanese. So it depends on why you seek to learn a new language :)

I would say if you live in the US the most useful 2ndary language is Spanish. Especially if you live in the SouthWest! California, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, etc. It has even become quite popular here in Pennsylvania as well....

I think English is the most useful foreign language preceded by French. English is used in mostly all countries around the world, as primary or secondary language. For example, in India, people speak mostly English as a secondary language, the same repeats for many other countries. So I think learning English can resolved the communication problems around the world and can be profitable to set up trades between countries.

I'm from the Philippines. I think English is the most useful language because it's the universal language. Next is Chinese. I think Chinese will become one of the most widely used language in the future.

My native language is English, and no matter where I have been it seems thrat a some people speak it. I studied french for 4 years in school but don't remember much of it. I am currently trying to learn to speak Spanish. At my age it is very hard to learn a different language and wish that I had learned more when I was younger.

I am from China.That I think English is the most useful.Cause most of business to business use English,and English is the most common.But unfortunately My English is poor. I have to improve My able to foreign langauge.By the way i like Korean and Japanese.Most important I love China!

I think English is the most useful . Many can comprehend this than other. It's because this is the medium of instruction here in my country. But in my own little idea this is useful because in foreign they also knew English. Even they have languages learned. They can understand English well.

English is known for universal language..Ive been thinking!! Many people are interested in studying french...I guess french is the secondary useful language...Its not only beautiful it also gentleman way of speaking...

The most successfull way of making them speaks is to use the foreign language in the classroom, as much as posible (if we where afraid of making....

to me it is absolutely ---English, here in China,we have to pass many English exams, if we fail,that means we will lose good-pay jobs, we will lose a lot of chances to change our life. I hope someday chinese will be popular all around the world, and I will teach foreigners chinese if they want.

I have never learned a foreign language much to my discredit. Years ago when I went to school it was not a requirement. In the southern US I think that Spanish is the most useful second language to know. Many people move here from Mexico. My son has taken 2 years of Spanish in high school.

In my country, Bahasa Malaysia is the main language and it is the national language here and the followed by our foreign and 2nd language which is English.English is widely used worldwide nowadays and also becoming more and more important to us all since it is the main language to communicate between one another though we don't understand our mother tongues.

I think English is the most useful language in the world.. I am not an English native speaker but I can speak, write and understand English language.. If given a wondeful opportunity, I would like to enroll myself into an English class and be fluent in speaking and writing.. My part time job is article writing and I must admit that I am having difficulties at times.. yay!

I have studied English, German, French and Italian at school, and out of those English has been the most useful language. Without English I wouldn't be able to communicate with my friends from other countries and it is not easy to travel around in other countries without speaking English. I love the Italian language, but if I want to travel around outside of Europe I think Spanish or French would be more useful than Italian. I have lived in Estonia for a while and I also love the Estonian language, I think it is beautiful, but it is not that useful outside of Estonia. Russia is one of the countries that I hope to visit in the future and I have started studying the Russian language. I also think that it could be interesting to learn Chinese and Arabic.

Well, being a philologist, I've been taught to love many languages.English helps me a lot, so I think it's the most useful language for me at the moment.I use dictionaries and books written in English to learn other languages.I love Spanish,French and Italian too, I'm also interested in Hindi and Chinese which are still a real exotic for me!You know, it's such a pleasure when you enter the world of knowledge using language as a key.

hey there..you are very right..the usefullness of a foreign language depends on the place /counrty you reside in..but its good to know how so many languages all over the world are gaining popularity..its globally and culturally so enhancing!i live in india and quite honestly there isnt one foreign language which can be called most useful here..it think its a mix..in schools and colleges there is a huge rage for french and german..but recently japanese and chinese are gaining momentum as well..i personally think that chinese and japanese are very difficult to learn.because they have a different script altogether and also a wide and complicated rnge of alphabets!i have learned german and i quite like it.its easy to grasp and intersting too!i think we should judge a language on our personal liking and interest rather than judging it on its usefulness..if we like a particular language,we'll get a hold of it anyway!cheers!
