Is it even worth learning another language if you already speak English?

[Deleted member 18931]

You can go to most of Europe and get by fine with just English and of course USA, Canada, Australia, NZ, UK. Only places where it will be hard is some parts of Asia, Africa and South America. I thought about trying to learn Chinese but it will take a long time and be extremely hard and I don't see myself ever living in China anyway.

If you want to actually move to another country, its absolutly necessary to learn the language.

Otherwise not really, for South Americamaxxing Spanish is essential though, cause the english levels are poor.

yeah that's what I thought as well. If I was going to move to say China then yeah I would learn it. It would be easier as well as I would be surrounded by chinese media, people etc.

Yes. Even if you know few words it is huge plus. Imagine you going to Spain on holidays, talking with some girls only in english and then second option where you use some basic spanish words. Second option mogs.

In the US it does. I think the two best languages you can learn is spanish (practical) or french (best romance language)
