Learning foreign languages is one of my hobbies (which I tend to far to seldom, due to time restrictions, unfortunately).
But, #TIL that there is a 🇪🇺 European Day of Languages (which actually exists since 2001), and it's actually today. I also learned that I am one of 3 out of 5 Europeans who can speak a foreign language besides their native language. Furthermore, I actually know 5 out of the 24 official European languages which is actually a fifth of all European languages 🤯
Of course I don't speak all of them fluently (in fact it's only my native language (German) and English I feel really comfortable with). But non the less interesting to know and somewhat motivating to sharpen the other three, as well.
How many languages do my followers (or anyone stumbling upon this post) speak? How many would you like to speak? What was the last language you learned, or what is the language you are currently learning, or the next one you are planning to learn? And why not start today, at the "Day of Languages"?
Whatever you do today: 🇩🇪 Habt noch einen schönen Tag! 🇫🇷 Bonne journée! 🇪🇸 ¡Que tengas un buen día! 🇳🇴 Ha en god dag!
And if you haven't understood any of those: 🇬🇧 Have a nice day!
