Start with learning French correctly instead of wishing for something else !

Useful how? Make a career out of it useful?

>>
>>60807839
>I want something useful but hard and difficult
Arabic or Chinese
>>
>>60807839
arabic or chinese if you want a challenge and something that's not completely useless
>>
>>60807839
Mandarin and Cantonese.
>>
Blue board OP

Spanish, French, German, Weeb or Arabic, in that order.
>>
>>60807839

Argentinian spanish

Russian, Arabic, Mandarin, Japanese.

>>60807939
>French
Read the OP again. He speaks it.

>Spanish
Not really a challenge for a French speaker.
>>
>>60807839
mandarin or arabic both are becoming more and more relevant culturally and economically
>>
>>60807839
Arabic if you want that gulf oil money,chineese if you want that chineese money,depends on where you're planning to go or visit but arabic covers almost all countries from morroco to iraq so it's more flexible in a way,russian and german are also good picks that come to mind.
>>
>>60807839
>useful and hard
Chinese all the way
Noy even memeing
>>
>>60807839
Canada's largest trading partner after the US is China. So, Mandarin if you want to be useful in the business world. It's also hard, like my cock.
>>
>>60808006
Quebecois isnt fucking french lad.
>>
>>60808112
He didn't even say if he speaks Quebecois, Acadian or Laurentian French; but yes, it is French, albeit a different variety than the one spoken in Europe.

Still. Even if you do the ostrich way and pretend Quebecois isn't French, it's still related enough to be no challenge.

Only arabs you should be dealing with already speak English as a second language.
>>
Slavonics
>>
>>60808159
using that logic no one would need to learn any other language besides english, most chinese known english too but you'll get more opportunities if you speak the language, i think you're stupid
>>
>>60808159
It's still a fun language to learn, let him have fun with cases, dual and other stuff almost nobody uses anymore.
>>
>>60808143
The main issue is mostly grammarical, yeah, though the accent will get you mocked by actual franks if you try using those weird verbs to talk to them.
>>
>>60808159
This sort of applies to everyone though.
>>
>>60807839
j…japanese

>>60808253
Learning to avoid stuff as stopper or filer should be easy enough.

too busy making stupid rhymes
>>
>>60807882
Please, elaborate on how I can't speak French because I'm Canadian. Au moins on mélange pas le frç avec l'arabe , on ne se met pas à inventer des mots, et on met pas les mots à l'envers comme des cons

Nothing to see here but some old (18th century or so) discourse against linguistic variety.

Since you've studied Latin you complete the set and study Ancient Greek. Certainly not easy.

seul la pire plèbe fait ce que tu décris.
En revanche les canacons peuvent pas s'empêcher de mélanger français et anglais. Et si, vous inventer des mots.

He said he wanted something useful.
>>
>I also taught myself Latin

For what purpose?
>>
>>60810547
Latin gives you a better comprehension of English, even if you never progressed beyond the basics. Words like "verb" and "video" become more meaningful if you see the roots are in "word" and "I see" just like Arabic gives you a better comprehension of Italian.
>>
>>60807839
>I want something useful but hard and difficult
Russian
>>
chinese(普通語)
>>
>>60810610
Of all the reasons, you had to pick it 'gives you a better comprehension of English'? Poor form, burger.
>>
>something useful
That's boring, but if you insist, Spanish, German, Chinese, Russian, Arabic
>something difficult
Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Arabic

You should really go for a language that interests you, rather than one that's "practical".
>>
>>60811561
Your mom has poor form. Go sleep on the road, ape.
>>
>>60808219
most Chinese can't speak English for shit. get outside of Shanghai and you won't be able to communicate with anyone unless they can read your 繁体字 kanjis
>>
>>60807839
>I want something useful but hard and difficult
Russian should be challenging for someone who's not familiar with slavic languages.
>>
>>60811705
>You should really go for a language that interests you, rather than one that's "practical".
This. You will almost never get any practical use out of any languages you learn, unless you go to that country. Just learn what you like. Learning things you don't like makes it boring anyway.

Whatever you do, don't learn Chinese.
>>
Japanese
>>
>>60807839
Potesne loqui latine?
Loquirisne vero?

How about German?
It's still relevant, even if memeing anons might think different.
>>
>>60807839
Finnish naturally. Why did you even ask?
>>
>>60807882

Written is literally the same. In fact ours might be even better cause we ommit all anglicism while you guys have let some English words sneak into the language.

Shopping lol!

Who cares about spoken, that's not an indication of language proficiency at all.
>>
Python or something, idk
>>
>>60807839
Spanish is usefull but relatively easy
Arabic kinda usefull I guess and hard
>>
>>60807839
Chinese and spanish might be the most useful ones
>>
>>60807839
if you want a hard language learn Arabic
not even Arabs speak it right
