How many languages can you speak?

[Rebdragon]

Geez, this is a very multilingual forum, especially considering this is a Runescape forum, and thus has a low average age.

 

 

 

I really need to move to Europe.

[yoshimagick]

english, chinese(mandarin, cantonese)

 

 

 

thats 3

 

 

 

i can read, write, and understand both forms of chinese pretty well

[dark_blob]

I can speak and write English fluently so thats 1.5. I can understand most mandarin chinese and and speak it, but I can't write it so in total about 2.5

[dsavi]

Haha! Can't believe I'm gonna be the first to get this in, but...

 

 

 

I speak the language of loooooove :D

 

 

 

12 thousand posts give people the right to spam, apparently.

 

 

 

Almost perfect English and good Russian. And of course my native (it means national yea?) Lithuanian.

 

 

 

Lithuanian is soo hard I hate it, but I must know my language.

 

 

 

3 scores for me ?

 

 

 

I can understand a bit of Latvian, but not enough to give me another half a point. Don't know how close Latvian is to Lithuanian, only been to Latvia once.

[misterxman]

I speak/read/understand fluently French, Spanish, and English.

 

 

 

It used to be the same with Italian and Portuguese but lack of use around here makes it so it takes me a while to speak it but I can read/understand it just fine.

English (obviously), French, German to a degree and the tiniest bit of Latin.

I have the same language base as you but I know several phrases from many languages like 1-10 in Japanese, and random bits and bobs :lol:

Aye, me tae.

 

 

 

I can speak proper English, but most of the time I slur and destroy it with Scots slang. :P

 

 

 

I can count in German, count up to 20? In French. Say a few words in Japanese... That's about it. I'm too lazy to learn another language, most people speak English anyway. :-#

[hellbellz]

I can fluently speak English. I'm learning Espả̮̱̉ol atm. In a few years time, I should have it down packed. Oh, one reason why I'm learning Espả̮̱̉ol is due to half of the population will speak it in a few years.

 

 

 

:uhh:

[Medellin]

Dos.

[OldJoe]

Been thinking of learning Finnish.

On the topic of languages, I still have yet to understand how you get that translation out of the Latin in your sig.

 

 

 

When I translate it, I get something along the lines of "It is to live two lives to be able to profit from the past". Where does the transition from one translation to the other take place?

[sohkmj1]

Chinese and English that sums it up pretty much :/

Hmm, i just took it from here - http://www.yuni.com/library/latin_2.html#H , and what did you translate it with? Some machine-translator or do you know Latin yourself?

Someone quoted me O_o cool

 

 

 

OT:

 

Latvian is as close to Lithuanian as Japanese to Chinese... I guess... don't know last two languages :(

 

There ar similar words, but Lithuanian is waaay harder than Latvian. I read somewhere, that Lithuanian is the hardest language to learn after East Asian ones (hieroglyphs -.-).

 

 

 

If you want I can write something in Lithuanian, you'll see.

I don't even know Latin and I can tell Reb's translation is the right one. I mean, "vivere", "priore", "bis"? That's definitely "live", "past", and "two."

[Try]

From most fluent to least:

 

1. Finnish (native)

 

2. English

 

3. Swedish (compulsory in Finnish schools)

 

4. French

I've taken four years of Latin; that was a literal translation off the top of my head [...okay, had to look up frvi >_>].

[lunapasa]

I speak English and Dutch fluently, and can read/ listen to (not very good at speaking) French, German, Latin and Ancient Greek

From what I remewmber, Japanese has an Alphabet of some sort. And Chinese uses only heiroglyphs. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong.
