Why do you learn another language?
Last night an acquaintance asked me why I learn lots of languages. Is it for work or for fun? Then I wondered, do people think that language learning is a drudgery?
Why does anyone strive to be multi-lingual? Are there many jobs which require multi-lingualism from people who don't want to learn more languages? Internet, please enlighten me!

I think learning another language is a great and wonderful tool. It allows one to view life in a whole new way or a culture in a whole new way. It is a wonderful thing to know so it helps you communicate better with others if they dont understand another language other than their own.
victoira, I completely agree with you: learning another language opens up knowledge of the world around you. Pursuit of knowledge and understanding is the most rewarding reason to learn languages to me.
Why wouldn't you want to learn another language? It is one of my fantasy super-powers.
Привет всем! Учить другие языки - это интересно, всегда мечтал понимать о чём говорят иностранцы!
Good luck with learning Russian! Its too complicated language :)
