Do you speak a second language? Maybe more.
My 18 GD was discussing this and I said that she should pick one that would help with a career. Suggestions.
Chinese would be good but very difficult.
As a senior, if I were still going to winter in Mexico, I’d be learning some Spanish. I’m amazed at those who don’t even try.
I don’t have an ear for languages but am willing to give it a polite try when travelling abroad.
You non-Canadians may think we all speak French. It’s our second official language. I do have several years of it. Other than when in Quebec, there’s been no need for it for me. I’ve only been there a few times. For federal civil servants, it‘s definitely an asset or required for some jobs.
