I thought about Irish but if I take it at all it won't be for awhile because it looks hard.
I'm also hesitant to take anything with a non-Western alphabet - as it is Greek is breaking my brain and I'm not exactly unfamiliar with the Greek alphabet. I tried Korean and I couldn't get past the alphabet because my brain kept screwing it up, so I dropped the course. As much as I would love to take Russian for fic reasons, I'll probably have to settle for Google Translate if I write more MCU fic and Nat is having A Moment.
(I'm OK with additional letters in a Western alphabet, like Norwegian has some letters English doesn't have, but I'm not having to memorize new symbols. The irony is that I can communicate in Norse runes and Tengwar, and I don't know why TF my brain can parse *that* and not something like the Korean alphabet or Cyrillic. ARGH.)
