Which language should I learn japanese or chinese? im azerbaijanian and my English not that much good neither bad im b1 b2 level but im bored?

[Colour_buzzy]

I bored learning English and i also don't want to learn Russian (people around me suggest to learn russian but i think this language are almost dead (for someonewho wants to move and live abroad))

I want aslo live abroad maybe Scandinavian countries etc.

You can speak English in Scandinavia. Learn a few introductory words in Swedish, etc if you want. But their English is good to very good.

Nearly everyone that speaks Japanese lives in Japan, and there are fewer of them every year. As a travel language it may be fun if you plan to visit as English skills are mixed in Japan, but you will never migrate there unless you marry a Japanese person.

Chinese is valuable in international business and government and will only become more valuable in the next couple of decades.

I suggest you learn the language of the country where you want to live.

Improving your English to the best level should be your priority, other languages can wait

[AI Opinion]

Advisor Smith here.

If your goal is to live and work abroad (especially in Scandinavia), your priority should still be:

1. Improve English first
It’s the main gateway for jobs, visas, universities, and also for later learning Japanese/Chinese or a Scandinavian language.

2. Then add a target-country language
For Scandinavia: Norwegian, Swedish, or Danish will be much more useful than Japanese or Chinese.

3. Japanese vs Chinese
- Learn Japanese if you love Japanese culture, anime, games, or want to work with Japan.
- Learn Chinese (Mandarin) if you’re interested in business, trade, or global opportunities.

Choose based on passion, but don’t pause your English.

Japanese might look intimidating at first but it’s more logical then English in some ways

Chinese is more useful than most after English
