I'm half German and learned both it and English growing up. I have basic language skills in Spanish, though I learned it with Castilian pronunciation rather than a Latin American one. I'd love to communicate with some native Spanish speakers and build up a higher proficiency!
Also, not going to lie, I got a bit teary-eyed seeing so many people liking and wanting to learn German <3 It has a bad reputation as an aggressive-sounding language, so it's nice to hear that others can see its beauty.
Sometimes I get annoyed when people in the US hear me talking in German and "compliment" me by saying: "it doesn't seem so ugly and angry when you speak it" - gee thanks >.<"
