@Majed  For what reasons do you like to learn languages? Do you have any goals to visit countries that speak them? Are you interested in commonly spoken languages or would you be open to lesser spoken ones?

@Puer Aeternus I like learning languages to discover new cultures.

If you're looking to unlock new cultures, these are the big ones with lots of potential that come to mind:

• Spanish/Portuguese would be easy and open up the most doors. You'd gain access to all of South/Central America. Knowing English, French, and now Italian would give you a big leg up in your learning. Once you know one of the two, the other will be very easy. 

 

• One of the harder Asian languages could be a fun challenge for you. I'm talking Mandrin/Korean/Japanese, all have very interesting cultures with lots of cultural depth. 

 

• Hindi is interesting in itself and is an excellent bridge language to learning other related and underrated languages with massive populations. Through direct relation, Bengali, Nepali, many other Indian languages like Gujarati/Punjabi. Through Urdu (Pakistan), which is HIGHLY similar to Hindi and super easy to learn, and with help from your Arabic, you'd be able to more easily learn Farsi, Dari, and Tajik.

 

• Indonesia flies under peoples radars despite being the fourth most populated country. Due to it's geography basically just being a bunch of islands, producing an OBSCENE amount of cultural diversity. It would be fairly easy for you to learn. It's a fascinating and less known place, bonus points for being very similar to Malay if you'd like to learn that too.

 

• Russian carries with it an incredible depth of interesting history. It's a harsh, interesting place in general. Plus many former USSR countries still speak Russian heavily, so you could gain lots of insight into those as well. It has a different alphabet but cyrillic honestly isn't hard at all.
