Yup, I will be learning the language of love this term... :)
I registered for a German course, and it should be interesting... I've always wanted to learn it a bit for some reason, and now I will... :)

I'm afraid dutch wasn't offered... if it was, I probably would've done it, just because I've been surrounded by it for months... :)

Oh well have fun...phhh lol
German is a more complex language than english....so beware it takes some getting used to the whole syntax....der/die/das etc.

The language of love is French, not German. To be honest, German is one of the ugliest languages I know of. It's so rock hard and sharp-edged.
No offence of course..

no critisism intended but English/German combo is pretty unintersting given the similarities. I'd say the best options today would be chinese,spanish,french. But hey good luck with your choice.
My girlfriend scares me. She has greek,english,spanish at fluency levels and is picking up french at an alarming speed! :)

somehow italian and french seem pretty simmilar, its funny cos my mom speaks italian perfectly and she doesnt understand almost nothing in french...on the other hand i watched a japanese film about a week ago with french subtitles - and my italian isnt that good and i uderstood quite well what were they talking about, well the good thing was it was one of those classice japanese films where they dont say much hehe

yes I find that I can understand quite easily however when I comes to expressing myself in Italian I have major difficulties. I should say 'had' as I gave up with languages (both spanish and italian) although I intend to learn greek in the near future.
