Most of them I learned out of necessity. And they do help and will help even more when I'll be searching for a job.

I did Afrikaans + a very small amount of Northern Sotho at primary school, but came over to the UK when I was 10 and did German, which was sufficiently similar enough to Afrikaans to 'overwrite' my limited Afrikaans. Did help a lot with Spoken German though - as most of the consonant groupings are pronounced the same, I had a Good few years head-start on everyone else in that department when I went to Secondary school here, as they only start learning another language then.

My German's not great - enough to get by probably get the right trains and ordering the right food etc, but has suffered from under-use I think.

So you can say:
"I think you're a beautiful monkey, I want to have sex with your Donkey's Arsehole"

Or at least you could communicate that message well enough....

That's the most useless sentence to learn in a foreign language, ever. If you got a point to make in that department you can just show the merchandize and they'll understand just fine, I assure you.

Why would you want to tell a person that is blind and cannot feel anything that you have a big penis? Do you have any specific purpose in mind?

d00d, I put my parenthesis right after German, meaning I started learning it 2 weeks ago! I've known Arabic since I was born, French a little later, English a little later but better since Wheel of Fortune, and now German.

Yay!
