Not counting the languages I'm comfortable with (English, French, Spanish, German and Italian), I should start the list with two languages I've started:

Portuguese
Norwegian

That leaves me with eighteen:

Greek
Russian
Mandarin
Korean
Japanese
Arabic
Hebrew
Czech
Dutch
Thai
Latin
Swahili
Yoruba
Dutch

This list is in no particular order.

I knew I was forgetting one! What's it say about a person when they list twenty languages to learn and still can't think of them all?

Most of those languages I've never heard of. Where is this big box language store, or is that an expression I've never heard?
