Hello, Hola, Dag, .... . ._.. ._.. ___

That title is hello in four languages. English, Spanish, Dutch, and Morse Code.

Language is interesting, I think. Lets you communicate with other people.

I know English, of course, and I'm learning Spanish in school. Morse Code, Sign Language, and Dutch I'm trying to teach myself because I like language. Words, the way they fit together. Sign Language and Morse Code especially, almost like secret code, since so few people know it. Dutch, also not well known, at least near me, really would allow you to talk in a crowd without too many people understanding what you say.

I don't adore Spanish class, I think partly because I don't like learning a language for someone else. I'd rather learn it because I want to than because my school requires it.

A while ago, I decided I wanted to know basic sayings in many languages. I'm still working on the pronunciation, but I've gotten "Where's the bathroom?" "Can you help me?" "Do you speak English?" and the like in maybe ten languages.

PS This can easily relate to books. Books have words, words are a part of language.
