I have to say that I am seriously jealous. Speaking as a Canadian who speaks sketchy French, is studying Japanese and has a cursory knowledge of German - I only WISH my school had even offered that kind of material. I was in French Immersion for seven years - I lived in a small town, so if you wanted to learn a third language, Spanish became available in 9th grade. They used to teach German at the highschool but they cut it for budget reasons - and *forget* about trying to learn any Asian languages, pbff. Now I'm in university and I want to minor in Linguistics and cram in as many languages as I can... and I can't help but really, really wish I could have learned this stuff younger. Once I tried my hand at getting into languages, it was like only just realizing I've been missing an arm all my life or something. BAWW.

I've heard about schools in Europe placing more emphasis on languages - or not even just schools, but the environment in general means you can't help but learn multiple languages. I'd hazard that smaller-sized countries (geographically speaking) are probably the big reason why language is more valued - you've got more languages in a smaller space, whereas here it's English-speaking from the polar bears to Florida. It's really depressing, I gotta say.

/blabblabgush but really. I think it's awesome that you can wrangle your way around so many languages, even if you're not fluent in all of them. :P

Well, usually it's only French and German on offer for other languages; bigger schools may have Spanish. I haven't seen Japanese anywhere besides the university and one of those schools that have lessons in the evenings, where you can just take one course and pay for it. The university here has a rather nice selection; I think that they've got also Italian and Russian, at least. No Chinese or Korean, though; a friend had to study Chinese someplace else. The Helsinki university probably has an even wider selection.

Yeah, I'm sure that every European has experienced the alien feeling of not having any idea what the people around them are saying. ;) Going to Italy was really creepy because I don't speak the language at all. It's also common to have tv series etc from other European countries and at least in Finland we don't dub them, so it shows people why it might be good to learn other languages. I grew up watching German police series and picked up some phrases from there.

Good luck with your studies! :)
