college.

Depends on what plans you have. If you foresee any future business associations with Russian companies or in Russia or whatever, then Russian would be handy. For the same reason, if you plan to deal in some way with the German speaking world, then German. If you don't expect to use either language at all, there's no point in picking any one of them.

I'm going to enter the college this year and I have to take the foreigner language class.

1) which country are you from?
2) which studies would you undertake?

Every foreign language learned makes you worth an additional human being

Whether you're going to use it or not, you have nothing to lose in learning a foreign language.

 

[Rami]

What about elvish Rhizoid? would that make you an additional human being

Oh schizophrenia alert

About the languages; Russian is spoken basically only in Russia. German is spoken as native language in Germany, Austria and large parts of Switzerland and as a second language in basically any European country south or east of Germany.

Thought that tid bit of information might help you but it depends on SO many factors. You're gonna have to give us more to work with here.

Also - you seem to be pretty good at English so German would be easier for you to learn. Both are Germanic languages whereas Russian is a Slavic language. Very different, much harder if you are not already in any way associated with something Slav.

You're welcome! And no, German is a very rare language here. Our native
language is Dutch, our second language English, our third language French and
our fourth German. Though I believe German has to share its place with
Spanish...

Here's a map of Europe in second languages that I found. This is pretty much
how I learned it at school too so it can't be too far off of it.

It said that this is a map of Europe in second languages as they are most
often used to conduct international business in. It also said that every nation in
Europe is slowly shifting towards English.

Being misled by the hispanic ~ perhaps?... No, I'm not Spanish.

I understand you're not following the regular courses program. But what is it that you study? It could be important as regards to which foreign language to opt for.
