That should have been "Languages," plural. It started as a
French/Math major, which was kind of a cheat because my family was
French speaking. But halfway through I got more interested in the
linguistics and phonology of European languages in general and ended
up with more credits in that type of thing than in French. Mostly
completely useless stuff now.
However, if you want to know exactly how to hold your mouth to form
the sound of a German "ü" or a French "ú" (which have no English
equivalents) ... then I'm your man! lol.
