Why Do I Want To Learn A New Language

    I think many of us have thought about learning a new language. The main reason I feel is to help communicate better with other people. This is the main reason I want to learn a new language, I want to better understand more people from a new place and better learn their culture. I've been fascinated by Japanese culture since I was younger, but research can only take me so far. what better way to learn than to experience it firsthand? If I were to ever visit Japan one day, I want to know at least the basics of the language. My other reason might seem a bit selfish, but I do think it could help benefit me and my career to know a third language. I know Spanish fairly well and learning another language would help me communicate with a more diverse group of people. I find this helpful because animation is a largely communicative career, and I would like those sets of tools if I ever need them. I also enjoy the concept of learning something new and fun, especially if I already enjoyed or appreciated the topic beforehand. Memorizing a new language, despite the difficulties I might face, is rewarding and I'm excited to learn.
