oh and it's not really the case of when you'r getting older that it's more and more difficuld to learn other languages, i'm 25 i know 4 languages and even now i can easlly learn a new language like japanese that have no similarity to the languages that i know so far.
So i thing that if the child learns 2 or 3 languages now it won't change a thing in the future for learning more languages.

I wish my mom spoke to me in Mandarin when I was a kid. But I was spoken to in Cantonese which is easier to me....and English is all too easy to learn. 26 letters!!!! My most desired is still French and Japanese...

Thats not really true in my opinion.
I think my English is good enough, and I only had 3 lessons a week, for five years...
but maybe its because I love English.
I also study Spanish, and my espanol still sucks...
anyway, my kids are going to be bilingual, German and English.
I will keep Japanese(starting next year with it) to myself.

That's really good and trust me, Spanish is gonna be a cakewalk since you know French and Italian. I wish I could speak 5 languages. I got the handle of Spanish and English, then kinda French and German. But yeah, the opportunities are a lot more plus you get paid more.

well i used to hate my parents when i was s kid lol but now i am thankfull for what they did, its true that the younger you start teachin kids other languages the better the chances to be fluent in it, i am fluent in 5 languages now and all thanx to my parents, arabic, french, english , german and italian :) life is so easy lol, i get stoped to trasnlate so many times :) my dad told me that those are the most used languages, but i wish he enrolled me in spanish classes, its more used

it is very helpful to teach your kids different langauges and to stick with it. i used to know spanish but becuase i never used it, i forgot and and now am unable to learn it now. |
