I’m supposed to know French since I studied it for 4 years when I was young. French, Italian, and Spanish are all similar. Hard not to get confused between them. Probably learning Spanish would be more useful, but would get too confusing.

Had to learn some Korean for Tai Kwon Do classes and tests. Here are the Korean textbooks I use:

Korean is so hard because it is completely different than any other language. But I love it because it is designed to be the most efficient possible way to communicate. Even though I finished Elementary Korean, I watched all the Squid Game episodes in Korean and only could understand a few words!

Mostly studying Italian now using Babbel. I love Babbel. I studied a little Italian before because I was on a joint project with Italy and Germany. Was impressed by the Italians I worked with. They spoke great English. But the only Italian they taught me was: “Ciao bella.” One young coworker told me to say this to every woman I met. Had to go to Italy a few times for work, loved it there.
