Wolfpiper, I suspect you have a facility for languages. I really don’t though I did learn to speak both German and French fluently. I’ve taken classes in Italian (super easy after French) and Chinese (I was a dismal failure). I’ve tried teaching myself Latin (I was too lazy to get far), Swahili (My parents were stationed in Tanzania - I bogged down in the same place in the foreign service book every summer) and Spanish (easy, I wish I’d pursued it.) It doesn’t help that I am not an auditory learner at all - if you tell me directions I get out paper and draw a map while you’re talking - because I have to see things.
