What language should a chemist study?
Some background: I am a native English speaker and a Ph.D. chemist. I took 5 years of French in high school, and I still know it pretty well (at least reading/writing) although I still need a dictionary for the occasional word. I don't think French has helped me all that much, although you do occasionally see an article or patent in French. I'm thinking of learning a different language. I know the traditional answer to my question is German, so you can read Beilstein and old issues of Angewante Chemie, but I don't know if that's true for the 21st Century. Maybe I should learn Chinese instead, although I understand that it's very difficult for English speakers to learn. And some people say that I'll need to learn Spanish just to survive in the US in coming decades. Or maybe I should just stick to French and try to improve my vocabulary so I won't need the dictionary as much. Which language do you think would help my career the most?
What language should I study after English?
As a future Civil Engineer, maybe you should check which places on this planet need someone with your skills.I believe The Nederlands is a pioneer in Civil Engineering, but, then again, they are practical bilingual Dutch-English, so maybe you don't need Dutch that much after all.Search where the big companies of your field are working, which projects are on demand and where they are required.With Spanish and English you have covered practically the whole Americas, part of Europe, and Oceania.If you want to remain in South America, maybe Portuguese, so you add Brasil to the equation.If you want to travel the world, maybe, for starters, try the standard Arab, or an East Asian language -since this geographical area seems to be on an ongoing expansion-.So, to sum it up: Portuguese, standard Arab, Chinese -Mandarin or Cantonese- Japanese, Korean.
Which language should I study?
The best languages to learn for a career in foreign service are Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, Spanish.Those are the six official and working languages of the UN, The United Nations is one of the world’s largest employers of language professionals, and all delegates and personnel are expected to know at least one, and ideally several of the languages.You already speak Mandarin and English, so you’re on a good way to a career in diplomacy!These are also the official languages of most other international organizations, such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the World Bank (WB), with the addition of Japanese in case of the International Monetary Fund (IMF).As for niche vs global, it’s all about your goals and motivations.If your objective is to improve your CV a little bit, one of the global languages may be a good choice.If you’re looking for a lucrative career actively using those languages, a niche, or even just less mainstream language will give you a much better return on investment (for example, in English-speaking countries, knowledge of Korean leads to a $12,000 higher median salary than Spanish or Mandarin Chinese).If you’re learning the language to enjoy a diverse and inspiring culture, you probably wouldn’t be asking this question in the first place and just learn whatever country you find closest to your heart. From a more pragmatic point of view, my vote would go to French (if you need some data to justify this choice, just look at the number of Nobel in Literature and Best Foreign Film Academy Awards laureates over the last century).

Which language should I study , Spanish or German ?
I've been wondering which language of these should I choose ! I love the way Spanish sound , but I feel that it's so hard to learn . German is good because of Germany only !! Germany has a strong economy , thereby it would be great to learn German . However , I've learnt German for 2 years now , and I went to Germany last Summer to study the language , but I didn't like it so much , mainly because of its genders !! :S However , I have the basics of German and can proceed learning it . I've bought a Spanish language teaching book recently , and it's great , but I still have many problems with it due to the different way of reading in Spanish than it in English !! And I felt remorse to buy a Spanish book and not a German one !! So, I'm still not sure which one is better for me , or which one is more useful . Another thing is that : are Spanish-speakers good ???!!
What language should I study, Japanese or Italian?
Ask yourself why you want to learn a foreign language, a demanding learnig experience, than go where the motivation is higher. Answare could also include the possibility of none, this has nothing to do with the merits of the above languages.There are 3000 relevant languages on this planet, each requires some years of focused effort and a good trainer just to get to the passable level, not less than 10 years to fully master it, each is equally rich and fascinating.In life one must choose and sometimes we just learn what we need to, because for random reasons that is what we have acces to.
Which language should I study, Czech or French?
It depends what you WANT to study and which language speaks to your heart more. What are your goals? Are you learning French or Czech to achieve some sort of goal? Learning foreign languages requires a LOT of time, patience and discipline.I can read, write and listen in both Russian and French(speaking is another story. I don’t have a lot of opportunity to speak either language), and while I have never learned Czech before, I can tell you what it’s like to learn a slavic language.Learning a slavic language is very difficult to start out with. Infact, Russian was my first language that I started learning over a year ago. The words you learn don’t stick with you as well as you’d want when you’re first starting out. I assume Czech is the same way because it’s very different from English. When it comes to learning a language like Czech, don’t expect it to bear immediate results. Be patient!French, on the other hand, seems to be a more digestible language to learn for native English speakers such as myself, and maybe you, assuming you’re a native English speaker. There are a lot of nuances in the language, of course, but in my experience, I’d say that genders seem to be the most difficult aspect of French. Otherwise, I definitely caught on to French a lot quicker than Russian. Probably after a month or so of constantly reading and reading and reading French, I started having fairly decent conversations in French, with okay grammar. I didn’t have this luxury with Russian lol.In the end, though, if you can, learn both. Maybe start out with something easier like French, and then go to Czech, or maybe do the hardest language first, get the hang of that, and then learn French. By the time you actually start learning your third language, you’ll have developed a keen startegy towards the long and arduous, but rewarding, road of language learning.Best of luck!

What language should I study before leaving for Switzerland?
The four national languages of Switzerland are German, French, Italian, and Romansh. Only three of these languages, however, maintain equal status as official languages at the national level within the Federal Administration of the Swiss Confederation: German, French, and Italian. Native speakers number about 64 percent (4.6 million) for German, 20 percent (1.5 million) for French, 6.5 percent (0.5 million) for Italian, and less than 0.5 percent (35,000) for Romansh. The German region (Deutschschweiz) is in the north and center, the French part (Romandie) in the west, and the Italian area (Svizzera italiana) in the south. Decide based on where your going what would be the most appropriate language to study, if not all three.
