Latin -- It's the root of everything and uber cool. I'd also love to read the Bible and original Church documents ( Read more... )

Funny you mention this. I just found an excellent language school, ABC Language Exchange - highly spoken of and very affordable.

Contrary to popular belief, finding a good language school is freaking hard.

Oh yeah, and I had a three-hour round trip commute every day, so I've been studying Spanish hardcore. No joke, I've learned more Spanish in the last week than I have the last four years. I just never made time for it before. It's incredibly easy to learn.

Yes, but Swahili is so not useful outside of Africa. And my Spanish is all mixed up with Swahili now, which is really annoying.

Klingon would be cool (and geeky), though.
