Members Kaz2550 Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 No, not the wimmens I mean the language. I'm gonna take up a language lesson to go with my engineering course. I already know a little bit of both languages already so wanted to take one a bit further. Which one would you guys say is more beneficial to learn? In global business context, particularly for engineering. I'm guessing Chinese but god it's ugly sounding lol. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rampage Posted October 21, 2009 Members Share Posted October 21, 2009 Mandarin/Chinese. Chinese is the second most important business language (according to SLI). French, not so much. I'd learn Spanish or German over French. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr Roboto Posted October 22, 2009 Members Share Posted October 22, 2009 Don't waste your time learning French. Chinese would be useful, or Japanese even. What about German? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the Chinese own America and the French just run away Go ?? Yeah I know a lot of kanji so I can already do a lot of writing/reading. Speaking baffles me though 4 ways of pronuncing everything.
