I honestly doubt that. Maybe if you are an heir or won the lottery, but let's face it, any retard could do that.

You are a retard that thinks that learning a language is hard. I did learn French while acing my college Physics exams and all that while also self-studying computer science, philosophy and learning how to draw. You just don't have what it takes, face it.

Not really, you would rather just great at your own native language and decent at understanding every single other language. Because it is not like interpreters aren't a thing.

Sure, I'd rather be Shakespeare and just speak English, but for most that is a lot more difficult if not outright impossible. Also, people like Goethe knew like 5 languages and were still "elite" in their mother tongue.

Chaque langue est une expérience de pensée, et tu fermes des portes à ta perception du monde en refusant d'apprendre une autre langue. Tu prends l'hégémonie de l'anglais pour acquise mais quand ton monde s'effondrera tu seras content de pouvoir penser "out of the box"...

You aren't that great in your own native language if learning another language isn't a trivial matter, anon. You can cope, you can squirm and scream, but that is how things roll. I did learn French by myself in 9 months.

I bet you sound like shit too. You're just a narcissist retard that doesn't understand what I'm getting at. Just because people politely tolerate your 3 year old hold on language doesn't mean it's effective for anything serious.

Americans aren't good at literally anything.

Compare US with Switzerland, this is perhaps the best proof of monoligual underdeveloped brains
Anonymous United States No.211834596 [Report]
>>211828406 (OP)
this isn't how it works. your brain has 100 trillion connnections and 100 billion neurons. knowing 6 languages, AKA 6 different vocabulary words for "apple" doesn't really tax that.

this is also why people with multiple langauges have lower incidence of cognitive impairment. They have many backup connections

monolingual
>apple --- this connection/neuron dies
Now they have no way to describe an apple and they're fucked.

polyglot
>apple --- this connection/neuron dies
>der Apfel
>la mela
>la pomme
>jablko
>ringo
They still have 5 different ways to describe an apple.

it's useless unless you're some autist with a fascination for languages or like the media behind a certain language. Like English or japanese have tons of video games, music, or literature to thrive from.

what the fuck does portugese have? books from centuries ago and pardo retards?

or maybe you want to deal with insufferable aspies like this?

Dude, I could go through those Michel Thomas courses and speak French. I did read Descartes' Discourse de la Methode in French. I also did read Rimbaud poems, that is proficient enough for my own wants and needs.

Arabic has medieval texts and a literary tradition. Japanese is interesting because they have great artists, most still alive.
