Actually on Duolingo, I’m up to my fourth language.

I started with Spanish, French, then Polish and now learning German.

I hope to do Russian next, and my background in Polish will help there.

My goal is to be fluent in all of those languages in five years. I try to spend an hour every day on it.

Learning new skills is good for keeping your brain active, and some studies indicate it helps against acquiring dementia or Alzheimer’s.

A few evenings ago I was part of a group that got together and sang Christmas carols in 7 languages, including English. Of the 6 non-English languages, 4 were ones I had studied in high school or college (but wouldn't claim to be fluent in any of them).

One of the Spanish carols made me hungry: "Mi burrito sabanero."

If you’ve got French and Spanish, try Italian. It’s fairly easy to pick up with the Spanish background. Or the reverse can work too. Portuguese can be read, perhaps not spoken, with the Italian and Spanish to rely on. They’re all Romance languages after all.

I have similar goals tho not as broad as yours :) I took French from grade 6 or 7 through Junior year of College...I understand a lot of Spanish, but would like to learn more.

So how do you like Duolingo? I am assuming you like it if you have stuck with it.

Testimonial/thoughts would be appreciated!

How was Polish? Poland is starting to work up my list in my escape plan.
