AND I just proved it a couple weeks ago when I thought a singer was singing in Italian........and it was French. Then I wrote a long dissertation explaining certain words to the Elizabeth girl and made a complete imbecile of myself. No, it's a bad idea. Learn second position to the point where you own it, and then venture off into other linguistics.
