I'm learning a foreign language now, but I'm still very much at the beginning. When I talk to my language learning friends who know English very well, they tell me that they feel more outgoing. I don't know if that's just because of being somewhat removed from people who know you, or if it has something to do with the English language itself and the culture around it.
