 ... is never enough.

I know a few words of Cherokee, rather more Lakota, and a smattering of, well, every other language I've ever so much as brushed against.  But I make a point of using my favorites, even if I only know a handful of words.  They are touchstones in my mind, access points for cultures.  They make me happy.  I like to encourage languages however I can.

I AGREE!

Learning other languages is good for the brain!
I'm told that English contains words from almost every language it's ever come in contact with.
:)

Yes...
