Also, (sorry to wreck your thread), why on earth would you need to learn another lingo?
If you speak English (and can make yourself understood to any and all English speaking peoples, why would you need another language?
Unless, as i said, you want to read a german philos-oposfer in the original?
If you speak English, you don't need another language. Aren't we lucky?
Basic comprehension of latin, french, italian and possibly german might help. I've even learned a bit of greek and latin. Bit of Arabic and Hindi even.
But you really don't need anything other than English.
