All a man needs to read is history... You're wasting you time, active translation will be here in like 5 years.

Wouldn't learning it be more useful in a wider variety of situations, and me useful on my resume
learn arab, somali or roach if you want to go to germany
>>69424108
Why are you learning German? It's pretty much useless unless you are an autistic Naziboo or a liberal extremest that wants to move to Germany. You should learn Spanish so you can listen to the Mexicans talk. It's also widely spoken as well.
>>69426916
touche anon
>>69424108
Nope. Cause the more sources you can handle, the better your studies of everything else will be.

Also wanting to become a polyglot so Spanish is on the list

>be me
Thank god you clarified this point, I might have been lost otherwise
>>69427825
Yeah alright realized that after I posted
>>69424108
your brother is a fucking moron. there is nothing wrong with learning about other cultures, so long as you do not neglect your own
>>69427074
Native spanish speaker here, meicans are impossible to comprehend.
>>69424108
Tell him you are helping to fix America's only mistake.
>>69428128
They talk so damn fast, but besides that are dialects right?
>>69428199
Damn right
>>69428267
Its not the speed but the accent and the slang they use which isn't spanish at all. I think its mostly due to the fact that the ones who immgrate tp the US dont have much education.
>>69428925
Yes dialect
No your brother is fucking retarded.
Learning another language is invaluable no matter what it is with the except for the obvious meme languages like somali.
I have a friend who is a literal high school drop out who makes 80k a year for a shipping company because he learned mandarin.
>>69429610
Thanks anon much needed motivation
Also, reading up some on Roman history
>>69424108
No, he is a retard
Your brother is a idiot and sounds like a BLM faggot. Trying to censor thought and knowledge because he finds it 'problematic'
>>69424108
I'll take things that never happened for 200 Alex.
>>69430487
More so proof of the horseshoe theory
He is what I would call a hyper patriot, so stuck in America his POV cannot leave it, kinda reminds me of the people of Oceania
>>69424108
