>>5741148>What languages do you already know?Just English and the bits of Spanish I can remember from high school. Spanish is generally similar to English, so with just basic Spanish and context clues you can sorta tell what someones trying to say.
>What cultures do you like?I am fond of European history as well as Japanese. As an American I don't really come into contact with different languages very often (aside from the obvious japanese because of vtubers). So whatever I pick would be for novelty.
>>5741185What isn't there to like??? The birth of modern western culture was in Rome (both renaissance and roman empire). Amazing food and art. Birthplace of modern finance, academia, and philosophy. I could go on.
Italy has only been shitty on the world stage for the past 100 years. Probably because they lost WW2 so pathetically.
