My new goal is to learn German. I have a great desire to travel when I grow up, and German opens up the door to many different countries - Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium and more. So this is my new goal, and once I have the grammar and alphabet downpat I'm going to focus on learning 2-3 words a day.
 
I'm from the Netherlands and Ido speak German. We even have it at school. It's not that hard. Viel glück!
 
Belgium?



Ich spreche keine Deutsch, aber ich habe eine Deutsches Wörterbuch in Firefox.

I wonder how much of that is correct...

It opens the doors to only a couple countries because its only the national language of like 1% of the worlds countries.

Learn spanish or french or something more used globally. Thats my advice.

Many of the countries that I want to visit speak German, not French or Spanish. Thanks for your tip, though

The countries you want to visit are in Eurpoe where most everyone already knows english as a 2nd language.

I want to visit Switzerland, Germany and Austria, and around 60% of people speak English there. It's always worth learning a new language though.
 
Its worth learning a language that is worth learning in my opinion.. Like the ones i mentioned above.



Look at me.. Trying to talk someone out of their goal.. lmao. Thats not the purpose of this forum.

Good luck, Sam! :]



Learning a new language is always fun...I'm looking for a new one to learn. And even if 60% of the population knows English, it might not always be the best, so it'd be useful to learn the native language.
