Helllo! I have reached quite a intermediate/low advanced level of french in the past and now have the oppurtunity to take Advanced Higher French at University. Upon completion of these classes, I would have ‘advanced proficiency’/near-native like proficiency of the French Language.
HOWEVER, one cannot deny the every growing Chinese economy. I am also an Economics/Finance student…and China is set to be the worlds next superpower so Chinese would be extremely useful. Especially since i am australian…where China is so close by..and our biggest trading partner economically…..However I would have to start Chinese at a low level…
but i do think that i tend to pick up languages quite well and have no hesitation with /practising talking to myself in french/chinese on the bus etc.
what do you think?
