What language is the most beneficial to learn ? For use specifically in the military ?
I have been teaching myself Russian and Arabic and was wondering which language would be the most beneficial to pursue ? I am in the USAF and would like to eventually use my skills when they are honed to perfection. If anyone had any tips on a specific language to learn other than Arabic or Russian, it would be greatly appreciated. Also is there any pay benefits by being completely fluent and bi-lingual perhaps tri-lingual ?
Farsi and Arabic are what’s really needed right now. Secondary would probably be Russian, Chinese, and maybe Korean. I also think there is an army web site where you can get that Rosetta Stone software for free since you are active duty. If you work with/know anyone Army ask them about it. There are pay benefits with language proficiency. There is a test that you have to take that will determine if you speak/read/write/listen well enough to get paid. Talk to you NCOIC to find where to go on base to take it and they may have some more ideas to help you out.
