If you could learn any language...

With all the different languages in the world today, which one would you try to learn if had the time and opportunity to learn just one?

I'd like to learn French sometime... France sounds like it would be a nice place to visit, so that's why.

I'd like to be like those super teachers who somehow know like 8 different languages! I'm on spanish, next might be French, if not then .....i don't know German, maybe.
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

I'd like to learn either more Frech (I know a little bit, though not much) or Japanese. Though I may go with the latter.

I would like to learn several. I'd like to know what people of other languages are saying. :wink Mostly, I'd like to know French, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Russian (always need to keep up with Russia), and probably Japanese or Chinese (for the same reason as Russian, not because I particularly am fond of the language in either place). Maybe Swedish too. Probably some others I can't think of now.

Japanese, definitely. I'd like to be able to play all the great games that don't get released in the US.
