My Purpose for Being Here & Learning Languages I want to learn Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Mandarin & Cantonese), Thai, Wolof, Yoruba, French, and others. I want to become at least proficient in each. I am here to find language partners and teachers who will take a strong interest in getting to know me and helping me learn. I will help anyone learn English. I will help however I can. We can skype, msn, facebook, etc. I love and appreciate the different cultures and people of the world. I would like to learn the languages to better understand the culture. You have to have some knowledge of a peoples' language to truly understand their culture. That is what I believe. I want to learn Korean, Japanese, and Chinese first, but I think I should learn Chinese the very first. In terms of business and economics, I think that is the most intelligent choice.
