[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It absolutely should matter. Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, and Korean, are substantially more challenging to native English speakers than languages like Spanish, French, etc. That said, it probably isn’t taken into consideration much, if at all.[/quote] Most of the kids in [b]Chinese and Japanese at our school speak this at home[/b] so for a non-native it's extra challenging.[/quote] I agree about the Chinese, but not Japanese. In our school district, there are tons of first gen Chinese families, and it is spoken at home. But hardly have any Japanese families. Their numbers are miniscule. There are more non-Japanese kids studying the language; typically white kids and other Japanophiles who like the culture, anime. [/quote]
