Yes, it is. You can learn another language to communicate with others who do no know your main language. If your first language is English, but this person you are talking to does not know English you can speak to him in a language that person knows like maybe he knows Chinese and your second just happens to be Chinese.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of learning another language?

- ask a dutch person
- In the Netherlands we speak Dutch. If yo want to learn I suggest you take lessons. But for most people it's a difficult language to master. (See below, same tekst as in English)
- In Nederland spreken wij Nederlands. Als je het wilt leren raad ik je aan lessen te nemen. Maar voor de meeste mensen is Nederlands een moeilijke taal om goed onder de knie te krijgen.

You can not speak Iroquois, since there is no single language of that name. The Iroquois tribes each spoke their own different language and collectively these are members of the Iroquoian language family, just like Erie and Huron (among others).
Although the Iroquoian languages are closely related they are certainly not the same, as the following examples show:
English.......................Mohawk.......................Cayuga........................Oneida
red.............................onekwenhtara.............otgwęhjia...................onikwʌ́htalaˀ
deer...........................ohskennonton.............dewahǫhde.................oskanu·tú
arrow..........................kayènkwire.................ganǫh..........................kayu·kwíleˀ
So it is clear that nobody can "speak Iroquois", but they can learn to speak Oneida (Onyota'aka), Onondaga (Onoñdaʔgegáʔ nigaweñoʔdeñʔ), Mohawk (Kanien'kéha), Seneca (Onödowága or Onötowáka) or Cayuga (Gayogo̱hó:nǫ').
These are among the most difficult of all languages for an English speaker to learn, since there are so many non-English sounds and combinations of sounds which English speakers struggle to pronounce. These are represented by special characters in writing those native words. The Cayuga term for drifted snow, for example, is onyęˀgwaohǫh; this includes the non-English sounds ę, ˀ, and ǫ.
When speaking to another bilingual person (English- & Spanish-speaking), I use a combination of both languages mixed up in sentences. i.e.: "You know, la muchacha that went out with your hermano. The one que no le gusta French fries."

What are the advantages and disadvantages of brainstorming?
Disadvantages:
•In a group participants have to listen to others and may spend time repeating their ideas until they get sufficient attention.•Going through the protocol, processing and ordering the ideas can become a complex procedure. This also depends on the number and order of the generated ideas.
•Advising participants to let others speak without making them feel offended or intimidated can be difficult.
•Participants with the ability to express their ideas faster and more effective gain the general attention of the group. Some form of leadership can be formed in this way within the group, which might make participants feel intimidated.
•On the one hand, people are not very skilled at controlling their non-verbal reactions and might influence the creativity of others with their posture, gestures or facial expressions. On the other hand, attempting to control their non-verbal behavior might inhibit their own creativity.
•More discrete or introvert participants might find it difficult to express their crazy or unorthodox ideas.
If you have not lived in Australia since you were a very young child, you will not develop an Australian accent. you can try to imitate but all you will do is end up sounding like a displaced Englishman or a New Zealander.
Hollywood's normal "Australian" accent is more like Cockney, and Meryl Streep's effort in Evil Angels was a cross between Cockney and South African. Even the superb Anthony Hopkins in "Fastest Indian" couldn't manage a good New Zealand accent, which, given Bert Munro was born around 1900, should have been an accent very close to Australian (Hopkins was criticised in NZ, but the NZ accent has diverted from the Australian markedly only since WWII).
The Australian accent has been scientifically proven to be one of the most difficult accents in the world to accurately reproduce (seriously). There are also regional differences.
The Australian accent is also nothing like that portrayed by people pretending to be Australians on US television shows. It is not a "cockney" accent with the emphasis on the "oi" sound that it is propounded to be. Where Americans emphasise the "r" in words such as "teacher" and "neighbour", in the Australian accent it is more of a "schwa" (an unstressed, neutral, toneless vowel sound) so it comes out as "teacha" or "neighba" (unstressed).
The lack of stress on the "R" in many words shows that Australian English is non-rhotic. Most (but not all) US varieties are rhotic, that is the "R" is stressed, especially at the end of words. The NZ accent is non-rhotic, apart from a variety found in the south of the South Island, which is heavily influenced by Scots speakers. NZ had a higher proportion of Scots immigrants than any case than Australia and this may explain some of the differences (ditto Canada vs USA). it is interesting to note that the original accent of the UK was predominantly rhotic, and that it is the UK that has departed from its origins, rather than Anericans who have altered their accent.
What is the meaning of rap about?
Rap is a form of freestyle singing that is closer to talking rather than singing. Also it tends to tell a story, whether it be about another person or something that happened to the rapper. Some Rappers like to Duel on stage both rapping to the same music but dissing the other person, the faster you can rap, diss and keep in rhythm the better rapper you are considered.
