Hi All,
I'm interested in learning another language, trying to narrow down what i want to learn.
I'm leaning towards Japanese at the moment, because a big interest of mine is popular in that neck of the woods (kickboxing and MMA). Would help when i travel over their and their might also be a possibility to have subsidized travel over their if i went with Australian fighters to be a translator.
Down side to japanese is that from my knowledge their isn't a large contingent of jap's living in Australia. Eg it's quite common knowledge that Viets/Chinese in Cabramatta, Koreans in Strathfield.
Would prefer an asian language due to interest in their cultures. Any ideas welcome.
Also wouldn't mind hearing the experience from other people here that learnt a second language as an adult.
Regards,
RH
