    Yes, of course, you should learn another language, it keeps the brain cells active and keeps the old timers disease away, a little like learning to play an instrument.
    I'm learning Spanish, as that will get me around most of South America.

      Yeah I think so, too. I learn English because partyly I want to keep my brain active. Currently I am learning Chinese, hopefully I can put that language into use some days.

    Yes, Klingon or Ewok, so when someone asks me how is your Katak, l can answer with Kaplac.

    But why l would answer that eating live worms, is success, escapes me?

    I learnt some Mandarin Chinese. In fact I learnt enough to get a couple of certificates.

    Unfortunately it's so hard to pronounce that I still can't have a conversation with anyone Chinese. But it does look great on my resume. And my party trick is to write in characters on my smart phone.
