Chinese! I’m a total ABC- American Born Chinese. Barely speak much Cantonese or Taishanese. No Mandarin whatsoever. Would love to spend time in China/Taiwan.

I can speak Spanish better than Chinese… strange, no? I just get more practice with friends.

I would love to learn Italian. It’s been a dream to visit Italy someday, and with retirement coming up in a few years, I may do this, and to be conversant in Italian would be a plus! Thanks for running such a great little contest!

This is a really cool giveaway – I like the idea of language learning 2.0!

I learnt German at school and I was an exchange student in Germany in year 10 of high school but I don’t use it much in adult life so it’s slowly rusting due to disuse. I can still make basic chat with German speakers though and they kindly tell me I’m not so bad.

But if I won the competition, then I would pick Spanish. I have rudimentary Spanish from volunteering in Costa Rica after university but I never took the time to learn it properly. The reason I would go for Spanish, despite also wishing to learn French and Italian and Chinese, is because I’m about to move to California and hopefully do some travel in Central and South America. It might come in handy in California itself as well, especially with my work as a journalist.

If anyone is interested in Chinese and specifically Chinese language with a food theme, then please check out my giveaway at ww.roamingtales.com/2009/05/20/un-of-food-china-plus-win-books/
