[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't speak another language. I wish I did. Honestly, it serves no real purpose other than it is cool. My wife does speak a second language. I have done work in Germany and Japan and did fine not speaking language. I have a ton of staff over the years who spoke Spanish, Indian/Hindi type languages and Mandarin. would have been nice to speak it. Most Presidents dont speak foreign languages. Other than the Pope who usually speaks multiple languages as does Mass and stuff in different countries what is purpose. [/quote] In addition the conversations and friendships you might have had, and the connections you might have made, there is something good in learning a new language for just you, too. When you speak a different language, you access a different way of thinking. You broaden your entire mind. Words and patterns that are unique to that language give you new patterns of thinking.[/quote]
