to learn and study languages can both be difficult unless you are totally immersed in it...then you have no choice but to learn it...what's fascinating is the fact that a lot of languages are related with the exception of some asian languages...

😑 Learn, not study? 😑
Languages rulez ✅
As Toni Morrison already said 😛 only Language protects us from the terror of Nameless Things
Language is only the attempt to give everything names
Hopeless
But amazing and wonderful

I'm not saying u shouldn't study languages, it can just be confusing and difficult. Hell, english is pretty hard, and I've been speaking it all my life.

Looks interesting ✅ ✅ I love language relationships 😛 especially of constructed languages like Tolkien's ^^

Never knew that about German
I'm trying to (or used to try) to make my own language for my story and it's hard. Tolkien was one bright guy
