Why did you choose your target language?

Scrabbin 1 years ago:

What factors did you consider when choosing the language you are studying? Usefulness? Career? Personal fascination for the language? Because it was easy or very challenging? To travel?

Yasser Nassar commented 6 months ago

My heart is with Arabic music, therefore I want to understand and learn some songtexts, but I also want to learn the everyday life vocabulary.

I would like to learn the mandarin language because I am very interested in the Chinese history and culture. I think that mandarin is a fascinated language, therefore I would like to be proficient in writing, speaking and reading and with a little help I will be able to achieve my ambition.

I can say that Terry Pratchett's Discworld is the ?sole? reason I actually started to learn or at least enjoy english back in school. Later I met the wonderfull people that speak it, enjoyed their good humor even more and then the hijinks with puns and other ambiguities of the language made for great fun. Todays it's a benefit for work in natural sciences but that's just a sidenote.

With dutch, I actually was interested in the country and it's politics first. The stand that society took on many issues among that on education and research was quite different to our practice here. So I went for a year to Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, prepared a lot of dutch to dive into society and ... : Suprisingly you had to beat people over the head repeatedly so they would speak dutch to you. I disgress. Spreek Nederlands als uw blieft! I stil enjoy everytime that I actually get to speak it in Berlin.

Spanish is the top of my wishlist solely for the maybe-one-day-when-the stars-are-right trip to Buenos Aires and Tango.
