Spanish. I'm stuck at passive understanding, but the frustration isn't enough to motivate me to study. I do love it, though.
Korean, as well. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Belgian Dutch! (aka Flemish)
:( All courses are based on Netherlands' Dutch, and I don't like Netherlands' Dutch at all, especially the pronunciation :( And there are too many false friends een tas koffie 1) it means ''a cup of coffee'' in Belgian Dutch 2) it means ''a bag of coffee'' in Netherlands' Dutch - I also like French, but it seems too difficult. Maybe, I should opt for an intensive 2 month course of French and Dutch in Brussels (I've seen some ads, and it's not expensive!)

Russian. I've collected more material for it than any other language, have had a number of friends who were native speakers, but have never been able to get the time to settle down and do it.
Of course, part of that was that I was immersed in the challenge of learning Chinese, Indonesian and Korean, or grad school, depending on the time in the past 10 years. Hopefully by this time next year, I will have enough of those things behind me that I can finally get started on it.... 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Malay. It is spoken in the region I am in, so it make sense to learn Malay. I managed to
collect some quality materials and a bidirectional dictionary. Unfortunately, I need to focus on my Slavic languages and they require much more focus. The Celtic languages (Irish, Welsh, Breton). I want to know if the urban legend told by my Chinese friend is true. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Spanish. It is so close to Portuguese that it's a shame I don't speak it. However,
when I did try to study it I mixed everything up with Italian, which I don't speak fluently yet =( 1 person has voted this message useful |
