I was thinking of learning another language to keep me busy till the game is releases. I've tried japanese but just can't wrap my mind around it. So I'm making a poll of the three potential languages. Also feel free to post languages that you know yourself.

    Japanese or Chinese are better options considering how they're coming up in the business world.  Or perhaps which ever language it is they speak in India.

    I more or less want to learn the language for the shear fun of it. Plus I like the way these three languages sound.

    German for utility

    Norwegian for easiness (relative)

    Well mt native language is english, and I also know a little spanish and some japanese (yes I actually learned some) I figured the three in the poll will be fun and easier to learn then say...japanese My girlfriend wants me to learn Norwegian because she knows some because she and her sister are big Kaiser Orchaestra fans. So I tossed between the three.

    Since your native language is English I am not really sure what to suggest to you.  Originally from Bosnia I can speak both Serbian and Croatian even though there are slight differences as well as Ukrainian, and now English.  The thing with me speaking a bunch of the languages I know is that they're based off of more or less the same Slavic beginning so I can get by in more then a few of the Eastern European places such as Ukraine, Russia, Poland, Slovenia, all the countries that used to make up the former Yugoslavia.  I can even go to the Czech Republic as well as Slovakia but there I would have quite a bit of a hard time communicating.

    I used to speak German due to living there for 1.5 years but I have not spoken a word in the last 14 years so it's more or less all evaporated.  I'd suggest you pick a language that you have regular access to.  If you don't use it on at least a monthly basis it will just become forgotten.

    No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

    Such a fun language to learn. Beselsz Magyarul?

    It's been 12 years since I lived in Hugary and actually had to speak it.
