I would love to learn Polish! I am having the most difficult ime researching my family tree. The Polish people had an unusual way of changing their surnames to fit their occupation or the birth of a child.

I would love to learn Spanish since it is the second most used language in the States. I know several spanish speaking people and would love to converse with them in spanish. Plus being bilingual opens up more job opportunities as well so that would be an advantage. I took spanish in high school but do not remember it all and was not fluent in it at all.

I'd love to learn Latin, because it's the root language for Spanish, French, Italian. After learning latin I think it would be easier to learn the others.

Spanish would be the most useful around here. But I'd really like to know Dutch.

Well I know spanish, french and some latin. I think that I would chose italian. I have quite a few relatives in Italy. I plan on visiting if I can ever find a way to save enough money. It would really be nice to be able to talk italian with them. Although some of them speak english really well. But most of my older relative only speak a little bit of english. When I was very young, I could speak some and understand most italian as my great grandmother took care of me alot and didn't usually speak english. She could but usually didn't at home anyway. But that was long ago and both my great grandparents were deceased by the time I was 5.

I would deffinatly learn how to speak spanish. In america soon the latinos are going to me the majority instead of the minority. With that said, I would like to have conversations with these people fluently. Now I know how to speak a little bit of spanish but I would love to learn more.

Japanese, for the lamest reason ever. I love to watch anime and read manga, and sometimes my Japanese-speaking friends inform me how much I'm losing in translation.

I prefer Latin because they say it is the language of the ancient people.
