Italian/Spanish/French
Mainly targeted for people who learnt spanish as a second language. I just need a few general answers because I'm contemplating whether to take French/Spanish/Italian Honours or Italian/Spanish Degree.

1. Is Spanish a hard-to-learn language in general?

2. Would it be easier to pick up in conjunction with Italian AND French OR just Italian?

Final Q, whats better? A Honours Qualification OR a degree.

Thanks for reading. I just need this information urgently because I read somewhere that multi-lingual people who posess more than 1 foreign language are somewhat more valuable than a person who posses 1 (duh). To be able to speak English, French, Italian and spanish would something very much worthwhile and a life fullfilling thing for me but would I be able to get it all done in a period of 4 years?

Also would learning 3 languages at the same time be too much of a workload? Would it be easier just to just take the degree course? Hm.

Help

I be starting the course when I'm 18... so by the end of whatever course I choose to take I be 22 by the end of it. Woah 22 and able to speak and hold a conversation in 4 different languages is quite the accomplishment.

ALSO I need help with something else. What jobs would I be able to understake with knowing these languages? I can't think of many lang' related occupations. BTW just to let you people know, the reason I'm doing this is:

1) My love for learnin' languages. I find it fun to be able to converse with others in a foreign tounge.

2) Exposure to other cultures.

3) I was told it's a very good way of gettin' around. Travelling the world.

EDIT: Maybe I should replace french with German? (<-- Noise pollution)
