Back in reddit in r/languagelearning whenever someone asked this question without giving any context about who they are or what they want out of language learning there was a long running joke to reply with “Uzbek”
You should learn Uzbek.
I’m fluent in Spanish and English, currently learning French. I like to describe it as Spanish with all the parts of English that make no sense. But knowing Spanish does make it a lot easier.
French will help you in Europe and Canada
Same here. Learning French knowing English and Spanish is too easy.
It it was my choice I would try to learn the language of the culture I’m most interested in
English, spanish, Portuguese… they all shear a lot of common words. With no context and thinking of “which language would be more fun to learn”, I would choose between ukrainian, arabic and mandarin.
Esperanto is Chad language
Jes
Would choose Toki Pona, later I would like to learn Swahili too
sina wile kama sona e toki mute la, o kama sona e toki pona. toki pona li toki sin sina nanpa wan la, sina kama sona e toki ante la, sona pi toki pona li ken pona e kama sona sina!
If you want to learn a lot of languages, learn Toki Pona. If Toki Pona’s your first new language, and you’re learning other languages, knowledge of Toki Pona can help your learning!
(“you” as in anyone reading this, not the person I’m replying to)
I’ve taught myself Toki Pona and am in the process of learning Japanese rn (read: procrastinating heavily), and the experience of having already learned one language has definitely helped me learn how to learn a language. Toki Pona just happens to be a pretty easy language to learn, but it’s by no means “trivial” to learn, it still takes effort and dedication.
French and Italian will come relatively easy for you, the others are quite different. Personally I’d go with Arabic, but that’s just because there are many Arabic speaking people at my job.
French is probably the most wide spread. Mandarin has most people, but only in one country.
