To all the folks out there, How many languages do you know, read or speak in general? For me I can speak 5 different languages but can only write 2-3 languages. As a Malaysian people, It is kinda amazing that we can speak and write different languages with other person or people since our country is a multi-racial type that has alot of races in one big nation and when I came to Japan, Many people were kinda surprise that we actually know alot of languages than other different person that has one or two in their own country.
It was kinda cool and yet brilliant that we can communicate with all kinds of people around including the western people who speak english, chinese people from china or taiwan, Cantonese who is from HongKong and now I’m learning japanese so I can also communicate with those Japanese people. Even my school teacher told us that Malaysian people got alot of opportunities to find a good work in here when they know how to communicate with international people around including Japanese too.
Languages is kinda important at this part where you can become a tourist guide or any translation person that can do the talking or writing with them without any problem. It is quite awesome to have know different languages at once.
