No surprise here...

I speak fluent German, English, French and Italian, Spanish pretty well and a little Russian - it has a few quirks, but it's a beautiful language. I enjoy hearing it. I never had the courage to learn an Asian language - Chinese or Japanese. The effort seems way excessive. The only incentive to learn Arabic would be so I could understand them when they scheme against us... from a phonetic point of view, it's a horrible language.
