If I were to learn another language...?

Trust me, you will definitely lose it. I have known many immigrants who, after living in this country and almost exclusively speaking English for several years, forgot much of their native language. One of these is a member of my family; he's a smart guy, but that has nothing to do with it--learning a language and retaining your knowledge of it requires constant practice. If you're only taking a year off, you'll probably remember some when you go back to it, but you'll forget a lot. So if you wait longer than that, a lot of your work from last year will have been wasted--it's like taking two steps forward, one step back. The people who said you wouldn't lose it have obviously never studied a foreign language before. I'm studying French, and I forget a lot of vocabulary when I go just a few weeks without studying.

Try it with French. Or Arabic. Or Hebrew.

I would see if there were any classes near you that you could attend. Maybe a local community college? It is easier and more fun to learn a new language with others than to try to do it by yourself.

Learn to clearly communicate.  Learning to spell correctly would not hurt either.

I have no idea, but I admire you for wanting to. I've always wanted to know a second language, but never had the self discipline to learn.

Nothing is impossible to learn if you are committed to it.  Search out people who speak the language, explain to them what you are learning and why...most of them will gladly help you.

as a second language?  or as your native language?

If you already have Spanish and French, you can easily pick up Portuguese if you need it; I would suggest something more challenging, that would also open more doors and widen your knowledge base - Russian, still widely understood in the former Eastern Bloc, and will give you some help with Polish, Serbo-Croat, etc; Arabic, you would find it some help in tackling languages that have borrowed heavily from Arabic, such as Turkish, Farsi, or Urdu; Hindi (actually a variant od Urdu); Chinese; Japanese. It would be a great mistake to limit yourself only to European languages if you haver other opportunities. Even languages like Swahili, Bahasa Indonesia, and Korean are well worth consideration. Learning a language means opening yourself up to another culture, different ways of thinking, different perspectives.\nAnyway, go for it, and enjoy!\nGood luck

I would suggest eTandem! That way a learner can learn English, but also teach some of their own language(s).

Ummm... Probably not going to happen that way.  If you have some time, but not enough to go to school, then it *MIGHT* be appropriate to try and learn a bit of web based languages yourself.  If you'd like to try, then here is a page with many good resources and tools for free.

What language to take, you mean? French, probably.
