No written? Interesting.

If you want full fluency in both spoken and written, I think learning the adjacent written portion would be easier with Spanish, French, German. So I would pick Spanish or French. Both are very common in the world.

Manadarin would be neat, but without the writing I wonder how helpful it would be.

*Lol I missed the picture entirely. Between Italian and mandarin I'd take Mandarin because sorry I see no use for Italian at all,
