Learning a new language is exciting to many people. Many people would even say that learning a new language is a great way to exercise the mind. Other people have other reasons for learning a new language like for business purposes or to use them when they go abroad. How about you, if you are to learn a new language what language would that be and why did you choose that? How do you plan to use it in the future?

Yes, they say basic Korean language is really easy and learning how to write Korea is one of the easiest. Although my friends in Korea said as you good deeper in your study, it really gets harder and harder.

Writing korean seems very hard because of those words which is strange to me. But better to learn the language and understand

Recently, I'm addicted to Korean music and movies, so I hope I can learn Korean. It's very confusing to hear Korean people speaking, it heard like there is no commas while they are speaking. lol. I hope I can learn to speak Korean and visit Korea soon.

Anyong Haseyo! One of the few words I know in Korean language which means hello! My Korean friends say their language is probably the most difficult because they have languages fit for adults and those for younger people. I do hope to visit Korea someday too to meet all my friends there. Maybe we can meet there someday, aritahime...who knows! Problem is if I meet you there, I won't know it's you...lol.

Yeah, I also think that Korean language is the most difficult language to learn. When I watch Japanese or Chinese movies, I can understand some words or even some sentences. But in Korean movies, I even can't catch a word. hahaha.. Your last sentence makes me LOL hahahaha.. XD

A pleasant day BetterDays4Me, Your post is like a query being asked into a pageant contest. Well, as for me here, I really loved to learn different languages. As there are times, I am thinking, if I can go back to my collegiate life, I will gonna take up a Foreign Language Course. As I do really love to learn the different languages in different countries. But, what to do, I have already graduated and finished my collegiate life so I must faced it. Thinking, learning is not yet finished at all. That although my college days are gone, I can still learn other languages by the help of our modern technology now a days. Just like the internet, as there are some e-books which I can purchase for me to learn other countries' basic languages.

A pleasant day to you as well airasheila, Yes, I agree that is the beauty of the internet. Many people share their expertise by placing their knowledge in ebooks. I want to wish you good luck to all your plans. Yes, come to think of it I imagined this question being asked in Miss Universe. ...wow, that means I could be one of those special guests invited to ask one contestant. lol.

I will put my efforts to learn Hindi. Hindi is the one of the other language followed by the people to speak. I believe that Hindi is the the second language which has a great significance and importance after English. As we go around the world we can see even a single person who can talk English or Hindi. So learning such languages helps us to communicate with other person even we are in other land.

I'd like to learn French, Belgian, Spanish, Chineese, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean and the list goes on. The reason why is to communicate with as many people as possible regardless of their home language as I am very interested in having friends worldwide.
