not really lol
i can understand 95% of spanish but my grammar is so horrid that i struggle to keep up conversations. i legit might pay for classes this upcoming year because my wife and inlaws are all native speakers lol
used to be able to speak russian at probably a elementary-middle school level, but that knowledge has gone to shit and i have zero practical use for it so probably will never pick it up again. i can read cyrillic though for whatever that's worth
i do hope to learn german one day for funsies but my wife would kick my ass if i put in a lot of effort to learn anything but spanish first lol

spanish doesn't seem that hard
french has more in common with english than spanish does
they're not like german or dutch which are both ez mode but idk they're probably the next easiest group of languages to learn, i would think
italian is dick easy and i should commit to it
