Do you speak a foreign language?

Gracias

I just had my spanish final today on all the tenses we have learned this year.

I was in Spanish 3 this year but I'm dropping it next year. I never really enjoyed spanish classes and didn't like getting C's and D's on all my tests and quizzes. I know enough Spanish to survive if I went to Spain or even Texas.

I only speak English. I took 2 years of Spanish in HS and 1 year in college. I can understand a teeny bit and ask where the bathroom is.

I took two years of German in college - then we lived in Germany for three years and I was able to practice with friends and get around to travel, etc - but that was 20 years ago.

Last year, hubby and I attended a 3 hour long Amish preaching service which was in high German - and we were able to follow along quite well...I was surprised at how much stayed with me.

Exact same as me. I am sad to not be taking it but it is just too darn hard to keep up with! Maybe if I go be an outrider (lead horse rider) at the racetrack I'll learn more and become fluent. I knew enough to have a pretty good conversation with the grooms at my old barn though.
