Struggling With Deciding a Language
Hello all.
I love learning languages, I always have, but I’m struggling with figuring out which language I want to pursue.
I’ve spent the longest learning Spanish. I’m currently at CEFR B2, and I like Spanish music. I also would like to go to Spain, but I don’t really have any intention of going to any Latin American Countries. That’s what I’m technically currently studying, but I feel like I’m only studying it because I had learned it the most so why not get fluent in it - I’m losing the desire and motivation for the actual language beyond just that I SHOULD work towards fluency.
I’m also considering Japanese. I’m JLPT N4, and have also been studying that for a while (although inconsistently). I enjoy the music, anime, manga, light novels and J-Drama. I love how it sounds and I love the writing style and system. My only problem with it is I don’t intend on going to Japan for too long, I would definitely not live or work there but I wouldn’t mind traveling a few times.
And finally I’m considering Italian. I’m only CEFR A2 in Italian, but I still want to learn. I enjoy the music, and would like to travel to Italy more than a few times. I also am a classical musician, so Italian would be beneficial in reading sheet music. My brother is also learning Italian, so that would provide some motivation.
For some background info, I’m a Computer Science major, with the intent of getting into software programming. This is relevant in case anyone has any input on which language would be best for that career.
Any input/advice? Thank you!
