Do you enjoy learning languages?explain EXTRA PONTS WILL BE GIVIN TO THE ONES WHO EXPLAIN BRIFLY
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

omg, yes! I love learning new languages. It gets confusing at times, but I would say it's worth it. I truly love being able to hear other languages and speak them. I like being able to speak with other people :)) When I'm learning it, those who don't know some of the languages I know, I feel a bit of freedom and by that, I mean I don't have to watch what I say around people because they may take it the incorrecr way, it happens often. It maybe the same word, but in another language sometimes I believe it has a different meaning, but the same. As in another meaning, I mean... like the way people take the language/speech as. :)) This may be confusing, but I will say that I love learning languages as long as they're ones I get to choose to learn because it's required to learn Spanish and it's different ig.
