Once you know one language, it's easier to learn another, once you start understanding the underlying rules of grammar that link all languages. I've also traveled a lot, and have lived for chunks of time in most of the countries whose language I...

Additionally, I have many different certificates in many different subjects. My favorite subject that I received multiple certificates in...
