I want to learn another foreign language, but I stop at the cross where four languages're standing: Janapese, German, French, Spanish. If you are me, which one do you choose buddy?
Besides English, which language do you most want to learn?
Well, being English, I've no need to learn a foreign language - except when I did French at school - but if I did learn another language it'll be one that hardly anyone speaks, such as Finnish or Hungarian.
ADAM DONT BE SNOBBISH PL

Don't bother with Adam, we usually ignore him. It is not clear whether he actually thinks what he says, or whether he's a troll.
"Portuguese (188 million)

Not correct.
Brazil alone has 180 million people. A lot of people missing in your data.

Actually, I'm going to learn French and Japanese simultaneously. All I want is to know the French and Jap culture, they are both very exotic to me. And maybe I got the luck to merry a French blonde.
I am an 19 year old Dutch girl and a future English teacher. I've loved the language from since I was a little kid. But if I could choose another language to learn it would definately be Spanish! It sounds beautiful and it is spoken in more than one country. Unfortunately I just can't find the time to learn it. Maybe when I am done with my other study. Take a course or something...

I would learn Mandarin or the Korean language if I had already been a good speaker of English..

I don't think there's any connection with Mandanrin and English. They're totally different!!! I suppose that you should learn them simultaneously if you have enough time and energy.

As first language speakers you have about:
187 million in Brazil
17 million in Africa
10 million in Portugal
2 million more in Europe (emigrants)
2 million in North América (emigrants)
0.61 million in Asia
There are no records for Portuguese as a second language but
Portuguese is an optional learning language in eleven European countries and the learning of Portuguese is growing in Asia and Africa. Several Spanish speaking South American countries teach Portuguese as a second language.
