“Hello, I need a train ticket for tomorrow night for Shanghai.”
您好,我想买一张明天晚上去上海的火车票。

Its not my fault that the most interesting languages to learn JUST HAPPEN to be German and Japanese.

There are too many languages id like to learn. German, Latin, Chinese, Sanskrit, Arabic. Mostly just to read them.

Ich lerne Deutsch, aber ich werde nicht mehr lernen, wenn Schüle endet

how to learn mandarin

I absolutely want to learn Serbian or Bulgarian, in fact, I can interpret cyrillic script

Don't waste your time unless you intend to move in this shithole, learn a major language instead.

>>764666
do waste your time

Mi lernis Esperanton!

The only true, international proletarian language is love.
And in that I am a virgin so

I learnt Spanish and I would love to learn Russian

I can read the Cyrillic alphabet approximately and about 200 Chinese characters.
However, I'm absolutely unable to construct or understand a meaningful sentence in any language that use these scripts, beyond extremely simple ones.
It's still very useful to be able to recognize that банан is banan (banana), кафе is café (coffee), 面 is noodles, 肉 = meat, 酒 = alcohol, 西 = west, 四 = four, 车 = vehicle, etc. when travelling.
I might try to learn Mandarin more seriously eventually, it has a simple grammar and China is a fun country.

I really enjoyed my time in Balkans too, so why not, however you might have trouble finding resources for these languages.
Most Russians I've met in Belgrade told me it was easy for them to understand Serbian, and Slavic languages tend to be relatively similar, so maybe learning some Russian first is a good idea, it will prepare you for the mindfuck that is their grammatical cases.

>>764698
You can use both latin and cyrillic script for Serbian anyways
Dobro jutro!

>>764708
Yeah, actually you need to learn both because in Serbia they use sometimes one, sometimes the other; sometimes for cultural reasons, like libs tend to prefer the Latin script, but it's really random.
They have a few unique letters like Љ, Њ, Ћ/ћ, but otherwise I would say it's the easiest part and the pronounciation seems pretty consistent, п = p, ш (sh) = š, etc.
I don't know the language beside "dobar dan" (which I pronounced "dobro dan" like a moron) and "hvala", but could read naively the banners about how Kosovo and Vojvodina and Metohija are Serbia without too many issues.

The hardest part is probably the seven different grammatical cases, something Latin kinda had, but most non-Slavic European languages don't have anymore, as well as memorizing all the vocabulary.

Bulgarian has only two grammatical cases, I've heard it's simpler, but I think Serbo-Croatian unlocks, as Language Simp would say, much more DLC, as it's spoken by 18 millions of people in Serbia but also Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro and some other parts of the region. Slovene is also a bit similar, though different. It's probably hard to find resources for Serbo-Croatian, so I don't even imagine for Bulgarian.

That said, unless I move to Belgrade one day, if I would learn a Slavic language it would be unquestionably Russian. It's spoken in every ex-USSR countries and even some others, it's one of the most international languages after English and Spanish, and one of the most used on the internet. Also it's beautiful when women speak it and there is a ton of untranslated stuff to enjoy. Maybe one day…

Honestly, even if Germany, Austria and Japan were the biggest fascists during WWII, they also have a pretty significant communist history.

Marx and Engels literally come from Germany, and the 1919 revolution could have drastically changed the course of the communist movement. Lenin was a huge Germanboo. Vienna used to be called Red Vienna back in the days, and Hitler spent a whole chapter of Mein Kampf seething about it.

The JCP has consistently been the second or third most popular party of Japan even after America kneecapped it, and Japan has a strong tradition of Marxist thinking going from Kozo Uno, Kojin Karatani to Kohei Saito, and also had a significant anarchist movement in the early 20th-century fighting for the rights of Koreans and that kind of things.

Therefore, I would absolutely consider German and Japanese to be honorary commie languages.

>>764723
Communists tried to control Greece but then they were pushed away to Albania. So, Greek could be a honorary one ili nešto

>>764722
Like I said, I can interpret Cyrillic. Once I read a sentence in Cyrillic out to a friend, he just sat there in shock

>>764723
That proves that fascism and socialism go hand in hand in some paradoxical way
