OK gonna speak a little Canto with y\'all. B/C in America, a lot of 
A lot of Chinese Americans were born here, but often times have a Guangdong (Cantonese) background
but my Canto is a little \"special\" because I was after all born here
but also because I first learned Mandarin then Cantonese
so my Cantonese may have some Mandarin influence
but in seems abroad, in America, the status of Cantonese is a really higher
because a lot of Chinese Americans only know Cantonese not Mandarin
thats a really common scenario. But of course where your parents were born
determines a lot and is a deciding factor
because of all the security issues going on in the Middle East. Of course learning Espanol is also very helpful too especially if you live in the South or California
but either of those two languages and including Chinese in my mind are what ppl should be studying
And the next language I\'d like to study woul be Arabic because I feel like um
