What foreign language did you study in high school? And WHY that language?

[ncba93ivyase]

It seems most people I've associated with, past or present, took French.

Zidone I know took French, Kaz I think took it (I don't talk to you anymore lol), and most of my non-Chinese, non-Japanese real life friends took French. Actually, my Japanese teacher/friend learned French.

french seems to be the language of choice among [glow=black,0,penis]intellectuals[/glow]

cities tend to have classes that aren't exclusively european languages

december's school (los angeles) has a chinese class and a lot of schools in pittsburgh teach japanese

i've actually heard of more schools teaching japanese than italian, since the only one i've ever heard about was a neighboring school in tennessee of all places

French. Spanish was available, but only through a teacher connected to the school via TV, who was actually hundreds of miles south.

i don't think you're ever more than a hundred miles from a spanish speaker if you live in any country with a population density over 1/km^2

My high school only offered Spanish, and all if the rednecks were too proud of merica to learn the language of foreigners. Especially the foreigners that ate taking all their jobs 
They're all dumb as fucking rocks

But yea I excelled in two years of Spanish because its all there was
I took a semester of French in college but the professor was dreadful

two semester-years of Latin in high school because it was the only foreign language that would fit my schedule

Spanish for 2 years.
