[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arabic is huge in the global market right now and the govt is paying a lot for Arabic translators. However, only a couple of schools in fcps offer it. [/quote] I agree that Arabic is an increasingly useful language, and a fascinating one to study as well. But let no one be fooled: becoming fluent in a "super hard" language (Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean) is a VERY onerous task and impossible to do from part-time study in school. I studied Arabic full-time for two years (as an adult) and have lived in two different Arab countries and still don't feel completely comfortable with the language. [/quote]
