On the cost side, Mandarin is a difficult language to learn, particularly as an adult. Learning to say “Ni Hao” and “xiexie” will endear you to a few locals in Shanghai, but it’s unlikely you’ll get far enough in Mandarin to find your knowledge of it truly useful. By contrast, Spanish is considerably easier for native English speakers, and it’s a lot more likely you’ll reach some level of mastery. In the end, I’d say unless you are a truly gifted linguist, Spanish is the most practical choice.
而在成本这一方面,普通话很难学,特别是对成年人而言。学习说“你好”和“谢谢”可以让上海的一些本地人喜欢你,但是,你对普通话的掌握未必能达到对你真正有用的程度。相比之下,西班牙语对母语是英语的人来说要容易的多,而且你对这门语言的掌握程度更有可能达到精通的水准。最后,我得说,除非你真的是一个语言天才,否则西班牙语会是最实用的选择。
Of course, if you want something which is really useful, you might consider a new computer language, instead. I hear good things about JavaScript.
当然,如果你想学习真正有用的东西,你可以考虑学一门新的计算机语言。我听说JavaScript(一种程序语言)还不错。
