Being bilingual/multilingual also gives more scope to endangered and under-revival languages, as in getting these parlances a few more active speakers. We can choose some of these languages for expanding our linguistic territory. That way one can also contribute in saving some of the precious linguistic heritages that are threatened to be lost for good.
Sanskrit, Ahom, Cornish, Latin, Barngarla, Ainu, Manchu, Quechua, Hawaiian, Mixtec, Rapa Nui and so many more are in the appealing options.
And some of these languages like Sanskrit, Ahom and Latin are highly knowledge and literature dense, they are still in use, but they deserve a very large number of speakers, indeed.
Learning Sanskrit.

We Filipinos speak 3 language, English, our national language and another dialect from our tribes. Others love to watch anime so they are studying Japanese language, and so kdrama, and I'm studying Spanish language. There are a lot of languages in the world that reflects the history of each, and its like a story learning by understanding language and understanding them.
Just sharing

I speak 3 languages fluently and understand two others. I'm currently working to add French and Portuguese. I think its a fallacy to think it's impossible to learn a language when you're older. I concur that plasticity is robust in youth, but as a lifelong learner, I find it a pleasure to learn a new language.

I'm all of these types in the different languages I speak. Compound bilingual in Swedish and German, Coordinated bilingual in English, and subordinate bilingual regarding Finnish. Pretty cool!
(so in theory I'm not really bilingual but trilingual isn't a real word right)

Hope you don't get bipolar because the stories you heard from both side probably going to make you feel that you are delusional. Bilingual doesn't necessarily mean better. Sometimes I wish I could just say words not sentences so people could just leave me alone.

Tbh i think its because im still young soo pick up accents and languages easily. I learn a language just by learning how to read and listen then practice for a year. I dont know why people dont try learning a language its fun
