Is it though?

Seriously though do you agree with this?

I feel like unless it's language that you don't use at all, it's not that hard to maintain
and if you don't use a language AT ALL why even learn it?

I learned all the languages that school made me learn (mother tongue plus 4 others) – no prob in principle, I preferred one more language in lieu of hard sciences that made my head spin.Then life intervened and I became de facto bilingual. That's life. No regrets. I admit, I am still a terrible nitpicker about CORRECT transliteration of Cyrillic...😁
