<p>Does being proficient in more than one language help your chances? Say like someone was proficient in English, Japanese, and German does that help at all? If so how much??</p>
<p>Not necessarily (unless said person used his/her language abilities for volunteer work, translation, proofreading, etc.).</p>
<p>So would learning latin so you can read and understand more about ancient civilizations would that help?</p>
<p>It just shows another talent and interest… I doesn’t help much, but if you can speak 3/4 languages then mention that. If you are a REAL language person and it is going to be an important part of your future (5-6 modern + latin + etc etc) then make a big deal of it.</p>
<p>So, if you want to learn latin to learn more about ancient civilisations then awesome - sounds interesting. That is then a passion and talk about it on your app. If you want to learn latin to talk about it on an app - not worth it.</p>
