What languages do you speak?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm a native speaker of American English, I understand British English for the most part though ;) (weirdos)

 

 

 

I've been through 2 years of Spanish class and I've retained only a basic knowledge of it... :(

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And currently in my 1:32 AM thought train I'm thinking about learning Esperanto :D

Tagalog (National language of the Philippines) + I can understand 2 other dialects (used to be able to speak them too, but forgot it as time passed by without ever using them to talk with).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

English is my second language. I also learnt a bit of French, but IMO, it shouldn't be forced to be taught at schools. What's the point of learning French when one word in english equals at the least, two in French.

Required spanish is the worst thing that could happen to my school. My teacher after 10 years of teaching Spanish still doesn't understand it.... :(

I'm learning Spanish right now. My first language is English, and I'd like to learn German. :D

English,Swedish and Finnish (proud of it )

Tagalog, English and Spanish (studied for 3 years but please dont speak quickly...)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I dont like french cuz its hard to speak with a spanishy accent, but I'd like to learn German and Japanese too :D

Dutch (first language), English (just about fluently), some French & German, a few words of Polish. If dead languages count, Latin & Ancient Greek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm quite sure this topic has been posted before, but meh.

English (first), french (2nd), german (3rd).

Alas but only English.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I can understand very basic French and German and i really want to speak fluent Dutch but I dont know anything bit english right now.

 

 

 

pfft @ British schooling system

Dutch, French, English and i understand German and sometimes a little Finnish :D

Dutch

 

 

 

English, pretty good, I guess. I think Matt understood me most of the time. :P

 

 

 

That's about it, my french and german suck pretty bad. I could survive with using hand and feet in both countries though.

English, but I learnt a little french last year at school

Dutch, English, French and German.

First, English. I speak about enough German to butt in on my friends' (who take German, so speak it) conversations with stupid things. I don't speak French (I've always found it embarrassing to do so, with all the nasal business), but I remember enough to get the gist of "easy" written or spoken stuff.

Right.. This is soooooooooo gonna turn into a boasting topic again..

Well English mainly, but a bit of French as well, learn it at school, and my dad used to live in France so we go there a lot too.

When it comes to speaking: English, German, French, Dutch. There's some stuff I can read, but it's pretty much only the basics.

English.

I'm a native English speaker, I can get by fairly well in Spanish, and I know a few words of French and Latin, but not enough to put a sentence together.

I speak, write and understand, fluently, English & Serbo-Croatian (known as Bosnian to some). I used to speak, write and understand German fluently, but it's been many years since I've lived there..so I can only understand what others speak now :( 2 years + 1 year independent study of French has only brought me to comprehend the basics, but I'm still learning :)

I speak english as first language...and French very fluently

 

 

 

I refuse to speak Spanish...however it will be the most common language in the U.S. here pretty soon....so yeah i think its important to have Spanish required

 

 

 

French is spoken in the most countries

 

 

 

I believe a country should have a set language and that immigrants and newcomers should learn the language...

They do learn our language, it's mostly the illegal aliens that have trouble...

Speak French and English fluently, always have. My mom is American and my dad is French.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know a couple words in various languages. Not enough to carry on a converstaion though. Although with languages such as Dutch (very similar to English) or Spanish (similar to french), if I listen to a video over and over again, I can start picking up what's going on, somewhat.
