I’d like to learn French. I took it in middle and high school and did well in it, but I don’t remember much now. Spanish would be the thing to know in my part of the country, but I don’t have that much interest in it.

I enjoyed learning Russian. One thing that helped is I didn’t study any other foreign languages first.

I used to love French in my teen years as it was an accessible, sophisticated foreign language. But now i'm more enamored with Polish and Italian

Have you tried an online course like supermemo.com that will help you get back to basic A1/A2 level?

I learned formal French in HS and picked up a smattering of Polish later on through travels. If you don’t use it, you lose it.
