Besides English, what other European languages do Asians learn? For example, are languages like French or German popular there?

Probably Portuguese in Macau

Latvian

french in indochina
spanish in the pinoyislands

Not even a little. Vietnam was conquered by France, Indonesians by Dutch and Filipinos by Spaniards and none of those countries can speak even a lick of those languages anymore.

The biggest reminder that Europenis ever cucked them is some of their alphabets that still using Romanized scripts. Of course we wouldn't know, we stayed an independent Kingdom and kept our divine ancient script intact.

French in high school, but we don’t use it much outside of that
In my experience third language is usually Russian due to business

Do your government ever thinking about reviving Nhom script?

we don't learn. mostly chinese or japanese

we don't learn at all.

It’s Nôm. Nhôm is aluminum
Also no, commoners barely used it due to illiteracy, and for bureaucracy it was only used over Chinese for like 5 independent monarchs

Russian

Nothing desu
Unless if you count learning other east Asian language as non east asian

he said european languages

Filipinos only learn English.

spanish

French for Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam.
Spanish for the Philipphines.
Portuguese for East Timor.
Dutch for Indonesia.
Russian for Mongolia and Central Asia.

So, basically the languages of the powers who colonized them.

If you exclude that, there are propably quite a few people who learn German or French or Spanish or Italian or Russian as a second language.

Also, there is many people into Classical Studies, they would become fluent in latin and ancient greek.

And for the rest, they propably also have some people that learn them.

lol

You sure? Even Quebec attracts Vietnamese.

Farsi, Pashto

>kept our divine ancient script
Looks like a lot of umbrellas to me

None, or rarely Spanish, French.

Mandarin is usually more preferred than those European language tho

No, not even Portuguese in Macau (which is an official language together with Chinese), the most remotely thing to “learning” a European language in Asia would be that Chavacano is also a lingua franca in Zamboanga

No

We have a shitload of Chinese in Castillian universities trying to learn Spanish for business purposes with South America. Since they don't understand why Mexican and Argentinian are so different they think learning "neutral" Spanish is the way to go.

All the Spanish is Spanish for me. Small differences couldn't be an issue for business

And Filipino

I thought Colombian Spanish was considered most useful. I do like Castillian Spanish the most though due to Vosotros, which Latin Americans hate for some reason.

Sorry not useful, meant to say neutral.

My father learned German and my mother learned Japanese.
