Is it appropriate to describe language learning as "frivolous" in general?
What language learning experiences have you found most fulfilling?
Learning a language well requires a considerable investment of time, and few people ever reach native-level fluency or truly engage with the culture on a deeper level through the language. Moreover, it is often a pursuit accessible only to those who have enough time, energy, and financial resources to dedicate.
