One of the best polyglots of all time

http://blog.esl-languages.com/en/esl/polyglot-cardinal-giuseppe-mezzofanti/


Here is a great motivational article of the amazing polyglot Giuseppe Mezzofanti. I think he effectively proved there is no limit to how many languages one can learn. :) In fact, it's been my observation that it gets progressively easier with each new language that you learn.

Introduction!

Hi all!

So I've been quite inspired be the many wonderful blogs out there dedicated to language learning and I decided I would create my own. For about the last 8 years or so, at the time of writing this entry, I've been diligently pursuing my greatest passion: Polyglottery. Ployglottery/ployglotyism is the gift of speaking multiple languages. It is truly an amazing thing and is well worth the time and effort it takes to achieve.

The intent of this blog is to divulge some of what I've learned along the way, so as to facilitate the process for other language learners, regardless of their motivations. I'll also periodically post various articles of interest in or about the various languages that I speak. These will be accessible at the corresponding pages found at the top of the blog. I look forward to developing this project, and please feel free to contact me with any language related inquiries.  Ciao for now.
