Daily reminder to learn a new language

I want to learn French. Does it have any merit in the literary world?

Non, pour toi je pense que l'espéranto est mieux.

What do you think?
It's obviously one of the greatest languages in the literary world.

Ich sprache auch Deutsch, aber nicht gut. Ich habe erst kürzlich angefangen Deutsch zu lernen

1. Learn Cyrillic. You won't get far relying on transliteration.
2. Create a Duolingo account to learn basic vocab and grammar.
3. Tape index cards to objects in your room (tables, instruments, lamps, your bed, etc.) with both the Russian word and the English equivalent written on them. My Russian friend's grandparents used this technique and the continued repetition noticeably improved their vocabulary.
4. Watch and consume Russian media. Radio, television, books, magazines, etc. Radio and TV will help with familiarize you with proper pronunciation. Also, don't feel embarrassed if you first need to watch children's programs to feel out the language.

My Arabic professor once told me learning another language is a lot like learning a musical instrument. It takes dedication and repetition and a lot of chutzpah. You're going to say stupid shit. A lot. You'll make countless mistakes. You'll want to give up a month into your studies. But, if you're really serious about learning the language, you won't.
There's also the myth that says you'll never achieve near-native fluency after the adolescence. But it's just that. A myth.
Have fun, user!

>Il y a Proust, Baudelaire, Valéry, Céline, etc et tu dois encore poser ce question?

Ce n'est pas un même, le français est une vraie langue litteraire.

>mfw never truly needed to learn a new language in school because I'm an American in a largely white town
>mfw regret blowing off foreign language in middle and high school
Took Latin classes this year at uni and don't know if I want to take an intermediate level Latin class and study French on my own or take beginner French classes which will give me the opportunity to converse in French on a regular basis. Either way, studying Latin has helped my understanding of grammar and hopefully given me a good vocabulary background

>I want to learn French. Does it have any merit in the literary world?
In my opinion -- no. French is a dead language: literary French is only good for reading dead old books. (Enlightenment/realist/modernist bullshit.)

Modern spoken French is an African language, so obviously nobody is writing anything of value in it.

P.S. Oui, je parle francais, tais-toi alors avec ses Moliers et Prousts.
