Currently trying to learn Arabic and Mandarin Chinese, I'll be fluent in both in about 10-15 years.

Its only cool in America because its normal to speak one. Other places people speak two and three languages.


However when i was in miami, i helped this older family with something in spanish and they didnt bat an eye...everywhere else i get de donde eres? Tu hablas super bien. Miami is an exception when it comes to multiple languages.

But yes it is cool speaking two languages, especially when you look like an average AA male. Nobody expects it.

English (obviously)
Polish (taught from Grandparents when I was young....lost it in my teens, but re-upped in my early 20s)
Spanish (learned & fluent for over 10 years)

Honest question tho.....I'm (obviously) a cac, in NYC/Queens, what language should I look at getting into next?

Not everyone outside the US is multilingual, the vast majority of Asians/Latin Americans are monolingual as well

Mandarin would probably be the most useful, but I'm sure that's hard as fukk to learn

As far as languages that use a Latin Alphabet, maybe try French or German?

I met a girl who speaks 4 languages and is studying to be a surgeon. I looked back at all of my relationships with girls of inferior intellect and I thought of how they would go on to express inferiority complexes toward me that would result in a lot of bitterness from them and self-esteem issues, and I here I am with this girl who speaks 4 languages and is going on toward a career that would make any parent proud and I know she's smarter than me in a lot of ways (not overall though, at least in the aspects that matter to me) and I don't feel one bit of inferiority. No self-esteem issue. No "why is she with me". No "I don't deserve her" . . I'm just cool

You must be outchow rabid ass mind.

I woulda got married sooner if I knew it was gonna be this smooth but I know brazillian Jiu-jitsu so life was destined to be simplistic for me and nikkas like you destined to be scrambling to pick up filthy clothes off the floor when you hear wifey's keys jingling to the door

While he upstairs scramblin to turn the ps4 off and turn the bathroom ceiling fan on to take the weed smoke outta the room :whew:

I seen my nikka fight with his bytch for 30 minutes over why he left the front door unlocked :mjcry:
