Italian isn’t tough, just impractical. I’ve studied Italian for 7 years and while my accent isn’t perfect, I’m pretty fluent. I plan to study abroad in Italy, but the classes are in English and the Venetians have their own dialect, so my Italian skills won’t be useful there. I wish I had studied Spanish because it would be a handy skill for a doctor to have, especially here in NY with so many Hispanic immigrants. Italian is a beautiful language, but unless you’re moving to Italy or southern Switzerland, I think Spanish is the better choice.
