      Japanese for work. I was trying Chinese, and tho my reading skill’s getting good, my accent was simply atrocious and requires immersion. Japanese pronunciation is easier for me so I switched to it this month.

        I had actually considered doing Chinese as my required world language for college. My trade school mentor, who was very well traveled, talked me out of it after telling me how insanely difficult Chinese can be to learn. I’m glad that you’re feeling productive with Japanese.
