Lots but not everyone. There are still hundreds of indigenous languages in the Americas, and many of their speakers are monolingual.

Correcto. El idioma es masculino, pero hay un sinónimo femenino: la lengua.

Right now I'm happy with speaking English and learning to speak Spanish - but Italian would be nice, too. I've visited Mexico and Italy (they are both beautiful places).

Helping hands

First off, my Spanish is far from perfect. I've only recently attained a level where I don't freeze up, hunting for words, and where I can understand the lion's share of what native speakers say to me. Now I'm concentrating on improving my grammar. But in defense of learning several languages at once, as I am, I believe they all develop that part of your brain in their own subtle ways, and kind of bootstrap one another upward. The two I've been concentrating on for several months now are Mandarin Chinese (I want to teach English in China) and Spanish. As a student of language on the whole, though, each European language I've studied has taught me a great deal about how they evolved and influenced one another, including Old English and Old French. And now, Chinese is revamping what I though I knew even further, as it is in no way related to those I'm familiar with, and operates in a very distinct way. Gaelic is one that I'll someday start picking at, so as to add a familiarity with Celtic tongues to that of Germanic, Romance, and Slavic, and better understand how languages within a linguistic branch divide and develop, and just how different they can be from one another.

Yes, you are correct. It is really easy if you are already Asian, like me. I'm Chinese. Though I'm not an expert in Chinese (and not perfect), I am still pretty good.

I have an odd fascination with Japanese for some reason.
