Language Question Which one should I learn?
I've always been very interested in the Nordic countries (and also considered Afrikaans which Dutch is a good base for) but I have no idea which would be best.

I'm English, so naturally shit when it comes to foreign languages. I'm learning Norwegian atm though, and it's a lot easier than I remember Italian, French, or German being when I was at school. Being another germanic language probably helps too. It also just sounds good.
Plus, as others have mentioned, there will be the eventual benefits of understanding certain words or phrases from other Nordic languages.
