What languages are usefull in U.S? (living in, restaurants)

[AlexWLLN]

Howdy everybody
I know English and Spanish, I wanna learn a new language but i dunno what language could be usefull in US apart of Spanish

If you have to choose a thrid language, what language would you choose?

[Crazybreakfast]

Depends on where in the USA you are. But honestly, I'd just stick to English and Spanish. There are some areas with large Chinese populations, so perhaps learning mandarin or Cantonese could help you. I'd just say take whatever language interests you- if you are in New York, LA, or Houston, or something like that, I'm sure you'll find other speakers of whatever language you choose to pursue.

Chinese, though only about 1% of the population are native speakers. It will be important for international business.

French, Tagalog and Vietnamese are next most common and could be useful in far Northeast or California / Hawaii respectively.

French and German also potentially helpful in international business.

if living in US is still your goal, I'd focus on continuing to refine / perfect your English first.

Depends where you are BUT I would say Chinese ISN"T useful unless you are Asian-American. I would instead say French, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, Arabic, Russian, or what ever the big non English/Spanish/Chinese language is in your city.

French
German
Chinese
Korean
Japanese

[OyCrumbler]

I'd choose the third language mostly based on what you're interested in or where you live.

[RaleighSentinel]

I would suggest Python or Go. They travel well too.

[Cherron]

German or even Pennsylvania Dutch would come in handy here with all the Amish communities.

Sign language.

Unless you’re going into a career where you’ll be traveling, or hosting/dealing with those, from China, Germany, Japan, etc. you won’t be using it much except in restaurants where they’ll probably think you’re butchering it anyways. But go for it, anything that challenges your mind is good for you.
