Which of those questions ought I be replying to? 🤔
I mean they're both in response to someone, and there's no question outside of those..

Here it's Dutch, English, German and French, all of which are mandatory for the first three years of high school. Though we already start with Dutch and English during elementary school. During the 4th, 5th & potentially 6th years you could pick between French and German, and could drop one of them, which is where I dropped French.
Near my final years they suddenly added Mandarin as an optional language you could take at my high school (though I doubt that was a thing nationwide), but that was already too late for me as you'd need to start following it in earlier years.

How many of those languages can you speak?

StCooler February 27th, 2023 4:41 PM

What if the number might surprise you?

I find it so cute when I hear people try to speak French.

In my country, it's English or German at the start of middle school, then English, Spanish or German halfway through middle school (if you took German first, then you have to take English, and if you take English first, you can choose between Spanish and German). ALSO, you can add Latin, and sometimes Ancient Greek if that option exists in your school. And I did English, Spanish, Latin, then dropped Latin for Greek.

So Megan, you took Latin, cause why choose a living language when you can choose a language that no one speaks (however, there are some Wikipedia articles in Latin lol)

What if it failed?

That's honestly really awesome! Makes me a little jealous in fact.

I mean, expert is probably too much of an overstatement. There are like two different "titles" you can kinda get. One is called "small Latinum" and the other "big Latinum". The small one you get when you study the language a couple years. The big one you either need to stidy it for six year, I believe. Or you need to get the small one and then write the final exam in that subject. I did both. ^^"

(Obviously didn't mention English as the secondary language because which country doesn't teach it?)
We actually got the option to learn Ancient Greek at some point because we happened to have a teacher who taught it.

How does a number fail to do something ? 🤔

Alex_Among_Foxes February 28th, 2023 12:55 AM

How does anyone fail to do something?

Fact Checking Gardevoir February 28th, 2023 4:24 AM

How does anything fail to do someone ?

ReKoil February 28th, 2023 11:30 AM

What are we talking about exactly? 🤔

StCooler February 28th, 2023 5:18 PM

Do we need a topic?

Megan February 28th, 2023 9:25 PM

Don't we have enough topics?

Alex_Among_Foxes February 28th, 2023 11:42 PM

Is there such a thing as too many topics?

ReKoil March 1st, 2023 12:19 AM

Doesn't that depend on who you ask?

Fact Checking Gardevoir March 1st, 2023 2:07 AM

Would they be dependable ?

StCooler March 1st, 2023 6:09 PM

Aren't they expendable?

Megan March 1st, 2023 8:58 PM

Do you mean expensive?

ReKoil March 2nd, 2023 4:56 AM

Are we talking about bribes? 😇

Fact Checking Gardevoir March 2nd, 2023 5:54 AM

Or are we talking about brides ?

StCooler March 2nd, 2023 5:42 PM

Why is everyone getting married around me?

Megan March 2nd, 2023 10:18 PM

How do you know it's everyone?

ReKoil March 3rd, 2023 7:56 AM

Perhaps he's gazing at all the social media?

Alex_Among_Foxes March 3rd, 2023 6:53 PM

Who wants to waste their time with that?

Megan March 4th, 2023 12:06 AM

Maybe Elon Musk is desperate enough for some attention like that?

ReKoil March 4th, 2023 12:26 AM

Did he buy another social media?

Alex_Among_Foxes March 4th, 2023 4:19 AM

*sigh* Which one is it this time?

StCooler March 4th, 2023 3:05 PM

Isn't it Instagramars, the Instagram for Martian people?
