What is the language you dreamt of learning as a kid?

Or which ones, and which do you currently speak (may include mother tongue)

Japanese, because of anime =)

I like Japanese as well because of anime. No other reasons. Haha

Qenya (elvish)... What can I say? I'm a geek

English. Weirdly i always wanted to go to an English speaking country. Im not really sure why :D

Bonjour Madame, Monsieur!

Whos K-Pop? :D

Korean pop music :)

Does sign language count. I wanted to learn sign language too! :)

Oh i see. Back in the day a Girl from my highschool class used to listen to korean pop music. Do you know the band GNA? :DDD

 I don't know of the band but there is a kpop singer G.NA :)

Japanese - because I find the English translations sometimes odd and hard to understand :P

Russian - neighbor language with a lot of common history and def interesting things to share, once you understand them (achieved) :)

English because of Spice girls

Me too!

But I don't know what sign language to learn because they are different in every country, just like languages. 

Japanese, I watch anime alot and it's hard to find dubbed version of all the episodes of an anime.

Yes! Sign language is definitely something I wanted to and still want to learn. But like Olga said, it is hard to decide which one because they're as varied as verbal languages it seems.

Wow! I have been here in UAE for the last 8 years now, but learning Arabic words are really difficult for me because in my current job, we are surrounded by expats coming from a different culture with different languages but the primary language being used is English. We are using English words in our daily correspondences such as when sending emails to our client. I must say that learning a language is not a easy task, you must use and speak the language daily for you to be able to apply it correctly.

Correct

ARABIC

I tried learning Arabic when I was in Egypt, but only managed the basics, counting, hello, goodbye, please, and thank you

To be honest, none. There was really no reason to learn a foreign language where I lived.
