Languages!
Let's talk about them for a second. According to Wikipedia there are an estimated 6000 to 7000 languages, which is a crazy number. Currently I'm trying to learn more languages, but I don't think I will ever be able to speak even .1% of the worlds languages.
So there are a lot of languages and most of them are pretty damn different (although there are exceptions to this, for example Swedish, Danish and Norwegian) so learning a different language can be pretty hard, depending on how close that language is to any other language you currently know.
I myself know English, Swedish, Finnish and I can understand some German and am currently studying Mandarin Chinese which is a pretty damn interesting language. All of these are very different, although German and Swedish share quite a few words, as do they with English, which really helps when trying to learn German. Chinese is almost easy, except for the different tones used to change the meanings of words and the characters being very foreign to me. There are quite a few of the characters as well, but some of them are just combinations of two or more characters, for example home, 家 is a combination of roof 宀 and a pig under the roof 豕
So what languages do you know se++? Do you want to learn more languages? Maybe someone on se++ can help you with that!
