I want to learn Japanese. Because in my opinion, it's funny and enjoyable to speak Japanese. Actually, I started to learn Japanese. I know how to count to ten in Japanese. Let me start; ichi, ni, san, shi, go, roku, shichi, hachi, kyu, ju.

And we say "Kon'nichiwa" to say hello. Also, I know how to count to ten in other languages.  In Portuguese, Indonesian, French, Spanish and German. Like I said at the beginning, to me it is enjoyable but hard to learn Japanese. In fact, I don't know where to use Japanese. Because I don't want to go to Japan for now. But maybe I can change my mind when I become older.
I want to say some interesting facts about languages. First of all, there are 7000-8000 languages in the world. And in Africa there are a thousand different languages. It is too many I think. The most popular language in the world is Chinese then comes English. When I heard this first, I got surprised. Because I supposed it is English. But I understand how this can be true. China is the most crowded country in the world. So Chinese is the most popular language. Second one is English, third one is Spanish then comes Indian. And Turkish is the fifth one. I think it is a good number. There is another interesting fact about Chinese alphabet. They say "characters"  to the letters in the alphabet. In Chinese there are 40.000 characters. If you want to read a book you should know 10.000 characters of the alphabet. But in daily language they use 4.000 characters of the alphabet. That is all I know about languages.
