Definitely Chinese (Mandarin, of course). Why ?\nIt's spoken by more than 1/3 of the world's population. \nChina is an emerging super-power. \nChina has been & will be US important economic partner.\nMandarin is spoken my most Asian countries (Mandarin is the national language of Singapore & Taiwan; it's also popular in Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, S. Korea...)\nIt's being implemented in some US schools districts\n(such as New york, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle...).\nIt's believed to be the language of the future.

It depends on what your native language is.  If you speak english, the easiest languages to learn are going to be french, spanish or italian.  That's because all of these languages derived from latin so they have form, structure, and even many words in common (or notably similar).  However, if your native language was vietnamese it would probably be easier for you to learn chinese than italian.

You shouldn't rely on one source to learn a language because they might have different points of view on things. I suggest that you use books, software, videos, and cassettes/ CDs to help you. Also, the Rosetta Stone one is pretty good and I think is worth it. It's up to you to decide.

Try the Rosetta Stone French computer course. It goes very fast, and it is always fun and captivating.

I'd have to go with everyone else and say Spanish (although, I'm hardly a business person, so I don't know how useful Mandarin would be). However, there is one language that no one else mentioned that I would really like to learn: Sign Language. Other useful languages could be French (If you live in the northeast or New Orleans area) and Italian. One of the nice things about Spanish, Italian, and French is that once you are competent with one of these languages, the other two are much easier to read because they are all Latin based.

Spanish, easy on the tongue, flows like a song, very easy to pick up, and is only second to the US, all over the world. Will definately not be a waste of time. I Took french all through high school, can't remember a word because its used very little here.\nSpanish on the other hand is as important as english. It is my third laguage, truly a wonderful language to learn and easy too.\nGood Luck

It all depends on what language you want to learn. I'd suggest diving right into it with java, or C#.  They are relatively similar languages, aside from the fact that one is based on Windows technology and the other is multi-platform.

English is one of the hardes languages to learn because it has 44 vowel sounds made up of different combinations of letters it makes writing very difficult because you need to know the correct rules. I would suggest you look at a book store for an English Grammar book to help you. Good Luck!

This isn't an easy thing to answer.\nIf you're going to learn a single programming language, learn machine code.\nI highly recommend learning C, HTML, JAVA at least. \nC will allow you to write powerful programs, and it's not terribly hard to learn.\nHTML and JAVA are both very easy languages that allow you to do web programming with great power and ease.\nThe great thing about these 3, is that you don't need any special software to write programs in these languages.

It depends on your ability to learn a language. For everyone saying spanish and french are so close to english actually german is closer as english is a germanic language NOT a romance language ( look it up, oh and i speak 6 languages and have a masters in linguistics so my answer is sound). Just because German would be the closest to english does not mean it is therefore the easiest as the grammar might be offputting to many people. In fact i found russian easier. So it really depends on you personally. A few things might contribute to the ease of a particular language such as, your exposure to it and your ability to retain large amounts of information and apply them. My suggestion is whatever the language you would like to learn just immerse yourself in it: Books, movies, videos etc. Now linguistically some languages are suppose to be easier to learn than others, for example spanish and french are considered categoy 1, german either a 2 or 3, russian a 4 and chinese, hungarian, finish and arabic 5.... but i found french harder than russian..so it really is up to you.

egyptian arabic is the simplest, and all the arab world knows how to speak egyptian slang, because they watch our movies and songs all the time, so its gonna be more useful.\nbut i have to tell u something, arabic is one of the most difficult languages in the world, its better if u can take courses (not online), and u need to practice with someone too.\nGoodluck:)

Latin is an excelent language to learn if you are planning to work in the health-related fields, and you will have a greater understanding of current english words and how they cease to be.\n\nI'm assuming you want something that your school does not offer (since the only last two your school DOES offer do not interest you)I would like to recommend Greek or Japanese.
