Besides English and Spanish, what's the next most useful language to know in the US?

and braille.

which i should consider.

That's a good point. I met a few college friends who were taking ASL classes. I'll consider that.

Yes. I feel that ASL should be taught to every child, starting in kindergarten, and it would take only one generation for everybody to know it. Done properly, it could be a universal language, at least, on the North American continent.

I'd say it's useful because many people speak it and I can reach out to more people who only speak Spanish and not English. I see your point though. I'll think about it.

Okay, I understand. With that said, I still plan to improve my Spanish a little more, and from the replies so far, I think I will try to start attempting to learn the basics of Mandarin.

That's a god point. And I'm not trying to be a professional interpreter. I just think it'll be useful so I can speak to more people and gain more professional connections or talk to more customers if need be.

Great suggestion! What is WAG? I'm not familiar with that acronym and Google isn't helping.

@hiddenkitty: wild a$$ed guess....

@VeronicaJane: oh lol

Okay, that's good to know. Thank you for the suggestion.

Arabic sounds interesting. And I can see how learning a bit about the Quran can be useful. I'll think about it.

Okay. And by Indian, do you mean Hindi, the language spoken in India?

@hiddenkitty: Yeah that. I keep forgetting the name for it lol

My friend actually just took a French class this year, and he seemed to like it. I'll think about it.

I belive French is the third most common language in the US.

I just googled that. I don't think I've heard of Sanskrit before. I might just read up about it later. Thanks for the suggestion.

You're welcome. Please do research and read.. its the future!

Oh, okay. I would have never thought of that, but I'll think about it. Thank you for the suggestion!

@hiddenkitty: Filipinos speak that. But they're pretty good with Spanish as well.

Okay. I have a few facebook friends who know Tagalog. I just didn't realize how common it was here.

Mandarin? Interesting. I'll keep that in mind.
