Spanish. I already speak English (The most common language worldwide) and although I may travel to Asia (Mandarin 2nd and Hindi 3rd) I’m more likely to travel to a Spanish speaking countries regularly so it would be helpful. |

I have attempted to learn Latin, Greek, Japanese, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and French. I'm not anywhere near fluent in any of them but I speak French much better than the others.
If I could effortlessly speak another language it would be Japanese |

Finnish, because I find Finnish women appealing, and it would be great to impress one with my smooth talking chat about pee-ing on whales and eating rotten herrings and all that mad stuff they do  |

These people have not taught you their languages?  |

It's not that they haven't taught me. They speak perfect English and it's never come up |

I am very lucky to speak Spanish as my first language.
I can communicate somewhat effectively in French, but I wish I were fluent. And I started studying Japanese in 2017 but left it. Time to pick it up again methinks.  |

That is a problem when trying to learn Dutch for sure. Also it's not a very sexy language, actually quite the opposite. Once I'd learned how to ask for a few beers and some food and the major swear words I sort of gave up  |

"Vorrei parlare italiano meglio di quanto non faccia al momento....
trovo l'accento italiano piuttosto sexy"
per me dipende molto da chi sta parlando
I can get by in French, Italian, Spanish, German and Dutch with some refresher brushing up.
Understand a little Latin based on medical and legal education I’ve had in the past
I’d like to learn Russian as the country fascinates me, and also I’d like to relearn Scots Gaelic which I had a little of as a child but has been lost due to lack of practice |

"Ive always wanted to do sign language whilst everyone can hear, those that cant have a true barrier.
Really to give a voice to that person and someone to talk to when out and about.
"
Go for it I’ve learned up to level 2 a while back - again I need to brush up that knowledge |

Welsh. I started learning, but as no one around me spoke it, I found it difficult to keep making progress. |

I’d love to read and speak Old English. I can listen to the ancient poems and ballads like Beowulf and find myself totally transfixed, without having the first clue what is being said. But then, I’m a massive geek. |

There are plenty of translations available online, personally I like Chaucer. But check the assessments of the translations, as always online some are better quality/accuracy than others |
