Learning foeign language is very interesting. Because it is the best way to understand other culture not just speak in a their language. When I was a highschool student, I couldn't understand 'hot'- yes, it means weather or sexy. but I knew about only weather, so I didn't know why people say like 'she's so hot'. haha. it's just one case. We occasionally misunderstand other people's words. Sometimes my friend ask me like this. "Did you have a meal?" and I answer it. "OK, and you? How's it going?" In this country, south korea, sometimes it means "How are you?". I think it originated from the old days when korea was poor. At that time(during the war), many people suffered from hunger. so they started say "Did you have a meal?" as a substitute for "How are you?".
Of course it is not easy to learn new language. But I wish to learn language as many as I can. The ultimate reason of it is people. I like people so much- and I like that make a relationship with love people. How about you guys...? Can I be your friend?
