I dropped Spanish which was the only language offered during my high school years. I regret it, and now I’m embarrassed to start learning as a uni-aged guy. I want to learn Mandarin because then I would know English and Mandarin which would cover like 50% of the populations speaking abilities.
Basically I just feel like a dumb American and being a Marxist I need to know another language.
the best time to start learning a language was yesterday… the second best time is right now. I was in the same boat as you at 20, and now I’m fluent in French, and have a strong grasp of German, Spanish, and Mandarin. Just practice everyday without fail.
