valiant try - german, jap and turk shold be jolly difficult for an english-speaker ....surprised you found french difficult unless you meant the pronounciation and perhaps grammar ? but surely the vocab was easy ? .....try italian instead - much nicer tooGerman is not that different from English, in my experience, but it was spoken by my family..
I have tried to learn French, Japanese, and Turkish.

Firstly, what was the search parameters that you used to find that "oldish" article? At the risk of sounding like a grandpa, my advice to you is not to believe everything that Google search comes up with! I kinda feel you aren't an "average" american!From an education stand point this really dont make in sense........ if you do a little checking you will see theres not much truth to the article.
No room for Hindi & other Indian languages in the National Australian Curriculum, expect Hindi will be like a after school activity, if there is interest, like other activity, chess etc.

Thats one of the things I like about you guys, you all will believe any thing.

Russian is actually mildly similar to Sanskrit and shares quite some words considering the distances that has existed between us and Russia for so many centuries. I am conversant in Russian somewhat reasonably and I highly recommend learning it. My dad is a native in Russian language in proficiency terms since he is a Soviet-graduated returnee though.Yup, I've learnt Russian somewhat, and it's also not too much different than English, though had to give it up because of other priorities in life. Hope to pick it up again after I complete my undergraduate.

Knowing Russian saved my neck in the barren vast rural areas of Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan during one of my expeditions last year. Spent two nights with a local village family drinking fermented mare milk drink (Kumis, its amazing) and lots of vodka.
It is the English (fashion language) of Central Asia.

Thats is true. Latin is the closest.Actually Latin is much closer to Sanskrit than Slavic languages.
I don't know about the English part but Sanskrit is a perfect language and there's no doubt about it."Sanskrit with its almost perfect grammatical system...provides children with a roadmap for understanding English.
Its different coming from hindi to german than it is coming from english to german.i started to learn German last year but found it very hard to learn specially the pronunciation of German words are horrible.!
