Heh. IMHO, Spanish is the foreign language for people who don't know what foreign language to learn. XD
Yeah, pretty much. I knew we'd eventually move back to America and that there were a ton of Spanish-speaking immigrants, so I figured spanish was the way to go...and then all of my friends back in the States kept asking me if I knew Japanese and I had to keep disappointing them, so that was kind of a wasted opportunity right there.
the hypothesis that Japanese is genealogically related to the Austronesian languages.
