Don’t learn more than a language at the same time. For your own good :D

I used to learn Albanian, Arabic, Basque, Czech, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Swedish and Turkish. A lot, no?
Why? well, don’t ask me, but I didn’t know what to do this year, took a website to generate a random number, got 13, and found 13 languages that interested me.
But now I reached the point where all are mixing up, and I prefer to not speak if I’ll say one word in a language and another in the other 😀 so I’ll start from 0 if I have to learn again one, because…well all of us make bad decisions.
So, what do you recommend? Which one do I keep learning/start from 0?

  1. Well, it’s actually not bad and reads both latin and cyryllic variations.
    The latin letters are actually used for example in the Serbian version of a game Crazy Party, where as Wikipedia is being written using cyryllic letters.

  2. A friend told me once that there’s a company over there producing serbian voices so yeah, not sure about that but I heard that there is something. Also there is still that stupid eSpeak, not sure how good it is for serbian.

  3. Two comments at the same time, I believe.
    Any way, I’d actually like to be, at least, a master of slovian languages.
    I know Polish and Slovak as my mother tongues (thanks to my dat from Slovakia) and study Russian at the university.
    This means Czech, Ukrainian, Belarusian, Serbian, Macedonian and Bulgarian still remain.
    There are no good belarusian voices, however, so I’ll probably give up on that language, since I actually heard it’s pretty similar to Russian in many ways.
    Same holds true for serbian, but there’s a good croatian voice, so I’ll probably just pick Croatian instead.

  4. Learn Turkish and Russian. If I had the resources, I’d learn Bulgarian and Macedonian, just for fun.
    When it comes to the reason for recommending Russian: It’s spoken by 300000000 speakers around the world I believe and except Russia, you can use it to communicate with central asian countries. I do so as well.
    For Turkish, It’s my mother tongue 😛 no other reasons.

  5. Okay, everyone likes and recommends certain languages for certain reasons. So I recommend everyone that they leave it to you. But I agree on two things: Your Turkish has also sounded fully correct to me so far, and that it may notbe the best idea to learn more than one single language at once.
