If this happened to you, what language would you want to end up speaking? Myself, I think I'd like to start speaking in Mandarin Chinese at ninety to nothin'. Keep politics out of this thread, please. | ||

Gaelic. That way if I get it wrong, no one will know. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation."

I'd go Mandarin Chinese as well. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Res ipsa loquitur |
Afroasiatic with an emphasis on Ancient Egyptian along with the written language or ancient Mayan and their ancestors along with the written language. Either would be fine as the cultures fascinate me. __________________________ | |||

If you include the ability to read and speak, Id say Latin. Lots of ancient documents and historical items that would be interesting to read. "I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them." - John Wayne in "The Shootist" | |||

Whatever it is the drivers speak when they try to play Language Barrier with me at work. Motherfucker, you know why you're here, you know what info I need, this isn't your first rodeo, this ain't your first rodeo with me, you were here last month, I remember, because of course I remember "Ramandeep", your name might as well just be Gay Sex, now give me the goddamned pickup number! All that, but in like, Hindi, I guess.
