Really? What kind of interpreter needs to know 7 languages? I always thought 2 was enough. And are you still in Korea?

Congratulations!!! That is quite a goal, but I heard that at least you need english, spanish and mandarin. So, you have 2 out of 3! 
I know English, Chinese, Korean and Cantonese. Trying to pick up Spanish right now (: I think it will be useful in the future

This is a great combination already! Keep up the great work!! 
Hello everyone! I LOVE languages. My current language list looks like this:
I KNOW:
Indonesian: native
English: native
Spanish: advanced (C1~C2)
Russian: upper intermediate (B2~C1)
** I hope to pass Š¢Š ŠŠ-3 (C1 Russian) and DELE (C2 Spanish) sometime within the next year. Itās going to take a lot of work, but Viki will be absolutely crucial in helping me achieve my dreams of becoming a translator!
I AM CURRENTLY LEARNING:
Indonesian & English: Because you can never know enough of your native language. Also, because I was raised bilingual I feel like my knowledge of each language isnāt as good as that of a monolingualās, so thereās that to think about as well.
Spanish & Russian: I hope to use these languages professionally in the future, so Iām taking the lifelong learning route for now!
Mandarin: I have Chinese heritage so I am trying to discover my ancestral language. Itās not going too well though.
Armenian: Just because. I am not aiming for a very high level in Armenian, but I do go back to it once in a while.
I WANT TO LEARN:
Japanese
Arabic
Turkish
Persian
(I am probably never going to be able to learn these languages though, simply because the ones Iāve listed above (save Armenian) are taking up 100% of my time and effort. Maybe one day, maybe one dayā¦)

I love your post!! You are so right about life-long learning, even in oneās native language. People donāt often recognize ti, but those skills can be lost, too.

Definitely true! Whenever I go back to Indonesia my English regresses to nothing, and whenever I go back to the UK I find myself struggling really hard to remember even the most basic Indonesian vocabulary. It takes special dedication to polish two languages at the same time, especially for a bilingual!

Thatās great! How did you learn ASL? I got random classes here and there, enough to bumble through conversation with a deaf person but never properly solidified it.
There are a lot of Haitians in my hometown, so it would be good if I learned Creole, but I never got around to it. What did you do to learn it?
Hello ^^
Iām studying Linguistics and itās very interesting. Iām thinking of possibly wokring in the field. I wonder if itās easy to find a good job though?
This topic and the whole Language Learning discussions has made me realise that there are so many more people interested in languages! Itās great. In real life I donāt get to meet many people who speak more than 3 languages (like me). They usually either think that Iām crazy, or a genius. And Iām neither ^^

Sorry to hear that youāve had some negative reactions to your knowledge and abilities, but I think itās great. I only have 2 right now, myself, working on a third has been difficult, because I learn best when immersed in the new languageās environment, but I havenāt been able to move somewhere new yet. All the best in your career. Linguistics is something I would study if I got a ādo-overā in life.
