And you need a lot of motivation.
I am Dutch and speak fluent English and Dutch, but French is exceptionally hard and I will never master that, even if I tried.
I practiced a bit of Swedish, but lost motivation and decided to just go for the partytricks and learn a few sentences in every language that "speaks to me" in a way, because that was more fun.
I have so far, not found a language that I loved as much as German, so that language is something I like to practice often, to just add a few more words to my vocabulary and just because I enjoy the language.
The partytricks are just for fun as well and have so far proven to be a hit, in the very (VERY) rare instances that I can show them off.
I have surprised a few Swedish girls by suddenly singing the intro to the RescueRangers and as one girl was holding a handful of change for the ticket-automat, she screamed and dropped all the coins everywhere. That was definitely fun.
The "partytricks' I know so far, are small (parts of) songs in Polish, Swedish, Danish, Ukrainian, French (but very bad), Japanese (arguably worse) and Skyrim-Dragonlanguage and Latin and I was planning on practicing something in Norwegian soon.
