it's better to follow songs that you can easily remember, then you can easily search for meaning of words.

very little japanese (from anime) (would love to learn more to avoid looking at the subs most of the time in animes and to play some JRPGs)

Exactly my thoughts : )

most Indians must be known to at least 3 languages I believe..Mother tongue/regional language,national(hindi),universal(englsih)

I unfortunately know only two languages
Never been good with Sanskrit when it was taught at school.
And, at Rajasthan, where I live - the regional languages are Marwari, and Rajasthani and I am very less familiar with them as well.


For self-solace, I know more programming languages than my friends

I am very late to this thread!
And I think I know the least of languages on this thread so far
Here are my linguistic skills:

1. Tamil [read/speak/write/understand] - Mother Tongue
2. English [read/speak/write/understand] (from school)
3. Hindi [read/write] - yeah... interesting! know what? I can understand hindi only a bit and I am mute in hindi! But I can read and write well!!! In fact, many have appreciated my hindi hand-writing!!

I wanted to learn:
1. Mandarin
2. Hindi [to speak/ understand]

^^ Can I get guidance here ? ? ?
