Latin, by far. I already know Italian and French.

<mega-facepalm>

why not a language that, you know, people actually speak in real life? Tongue

Presumably most of the people with whom I'll have the need to communicate at some point or another in my life will know English anyway. And Latin is a beautiful and fascinating language which is the ancestor to two of the three languages I speak, so I could learn a lot from it etymologically.

I'm currently in Paris, and I'd very much like to reaffirm my choice of French.  Beautiful language, and here on my second visit to Paris, I'm realizing it might be my favorite city on Earth; I'd love to be able to communicate fluently.
I'm glad to see you're enjoying this city Cheesy.

To be honest, I like my capital too. But I couldn't live her indefinitely.

Oh, I love it!  It's literally amazing.  I could see why you might not want to live there, but as a visitor it's heaven.

Especially as a visitor who loves wine!

P.S.  If any of our French avatars live in Paris and have seen a blonde-haired guy wearing a US soccer jersey (today) or a Germany soccer jersey (yesterday), it might have been me! Wink

I'll be back there in a couple days. If you're interested, we can meet up, although tbh I don't know you at all on this forum.

Uh, what? The Parisians have the reputation of being douchebags even among other French people. Tongue You must have been really lucky! Seriously though, of course there are plenty of nice people in Paris, like everywhere else.

And although I definitely like Paris and enjoyed studying there, I am about to leave it to go study at UCLA. Wink
