I'm watching a documentary series about China and the language is actually not very beautiful in my opinion. Sometimes I wish that I hadn't dropped Latin, because then I had Gymnasium and later on I developed a fascination for the Roman Empire. Latin is both learning about the language and the history of the Roman Empire. You have to translate old texts. Latin also has naamvallen, a lot! But I have to remember that I was at war with the Latin teacher. Plus, the language itself is only useful to guess words from other languages. You don't like maths, you don't like languages, but I do know you like geography.
