Would you rather speak every language or master every instrument?

[Guest]

Master every instrument then I could go around playing guitar like this. 

 

[Hocus Pocus 636]

Instruments... No hesitation.

 

I'd enter piano duels like nopony's business, and if anypony came close to winning, I'd lay down my trump card.... A live playing of "Death Waltz"

And if you don't think it's possible.... Well.....

 

 

it's not.... But here's the closest thing!

I would want to learn every language there is to learn. I've already made it something of a goal of mine to learn like eight languages because I find them fascinating, and while I love music and couldn't live without it I don't really have the ambition to learn to play an instrument.

[JonasDarkmane 19,777]

I think I would like to be able to to speak all the languages since it could be really useful for social interaction as well as for things I might be working with in the future . 

[Chaton 3,765]

Technically your mouth is classes as an instrument, so if I said all instruments I'd theoretically get both!

If every language includes non-human languages, then I'm in. Negotiating with dogs to do my bidding would be way better than instantly learning the flute.

Also consider, 'any language' probably includes sheet music. Music is a language, as is programming languages, as is dance, etc.

[APegLegPirate 168]

Speaking every language is a much more valuable and useful skill to have it.

[EpicEnergy 22,098]

Speak every language because I don't really like playing any instruments.

[Tom Gallagher 33,521]

Master every instrument. Help put some realness back in the business.

I'd rather speak every language since it's a more useful skill and it would make international travel a lot more easier.

Word on this, I've always wanted to travel

Same, I find myself needing to be able to speak another language more often than needing to be able to play a certain instrument. Plus, I am quite interested in traveling places. However, I can't help but to nitpick the way it says speak every language, which doesn't explicitly include reading and writing that language.

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

Wow, this is a really tough question! I love artistic expression and would love to play ANY instrument, let alone all of them. But I also love to travel and would love to go to any country on earth and readily speak like a native, so I'm going with the language. Now that I've experienced the difficulty of trying to learn a language, I can imagine how nice it would be just to program it into my mind instantly. 

[Fluttershutter 2,122]

Languages definitely. I'm obsessed with languages even though I'm bad at learning them and not much of a talker. 

[Props Valroa 26,051]

Speaking every language includes the language of the universe, so yes. 

[Evil Pink One 13,012]

Instruments......ahhhheeerrmmm!!!!!

 

For research cough... Cough.... Whistles....

[dead account 2,703]

I don't have time for either... I would rather learn all instruments since I listen to music every day and I'm not very talkative.

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

I’d rather master all the languages since I’m not musically inclined to begin with

[They call me Loyalty 1,941]

I would change all the languages of the world for hebrew. And all the instruments of the world for my charming flute. Freaking snakes... trying to inject themselves inside humanity.

[TheRockARooster 47,341]

I’m gonna go with speaking every language and that will help with the start of Roostertopia. ^^

[Dashiepie 50]

hard choice, but master every instrument

[Solar Power 235]

I doubt either skill would be of much use to me, but I'd choose to speak every language.

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,376]

Master every instrument, daily routine for muscle work  

[Cash In 21,534]

Speak every language. I admire music and everything that goes into it, but I wouldn't be able to put that talent to good use.

[Theautisticrebel 290]

Speak every language, because it's more useful.
