    I speak some Spanish! I like Shitzulover850 understand more than I can speak! My father was mexican, so i picked up alot from his side of the family(when he was in my life) I have not used it alot in life, but there have been times it has come in handy. I spent some time in Honduras when I was in the military, and was appointed as Translator for my Unit. Talk about It all coming back to you! he he he!! I have also taught my 6yr old some spanish.

    A foreign language is any language other than the one you speak in the country where you live. Is this poll only for english speaking members?

    One question though ... what's the reason for setting this up in Pet Poll? Why not in General?

    Ah oui! Je parle français ! J'aime la langue et l'avais parlée pendant trois années.

    Ich spreche auch Deutsches! Ich mag wirklich Deutsches, weil die Wörter so merkwürdig sind auszusprechen!

    ego parvum Latinum scribere et dictare possum.

    And of course I speak English too. I would like to teach myself Spanish, I had a CD which I used, but it was useless so I'll have to try something else

    Yes, I'm going on my 4th year of Latin (sure, it's a dead language, but it's also the root of so many other languages!!) and I know some Spanish.


    Thanks Kay!!

    I think what people think is that this section is for polls. There are many polls that aren't pet related in here, I don't remember it ever being just for pets. But, I haven't been around as long as some, either. I would think it would be more appropriate to put the poll in here than in general. Maybe that's what she was thinking when she posted it? And, again, if I was a new person, and, I looked in this section, I wouldn't think for a second that it was for pet polls only, despite the name of the section, just because of how many others aren't pet related. I'm not answering for her, either, just putting my two cents in.

    yeah but since this a predominantly english website, I just thought it would be nice to see how many people didn't speak english. but you can put english as your foreign language if you want.
