How many languages do you know?

[Sirrahsim]

lol

[Taz_Zoee]

English - although not proper by far

I know how to count and say a few things in German and Spanish. And I also know some ASL (alphabet and some words).

Oh, and I can speak a language we did in high school, called Double Dutch. And another one similar to that called Cat. Don't ask.

And another one similar to that called Cat.

[Marigold2]

Fluent English and German

[Catty1]

English fer sure.

French - just learned it in school ages ago, but when I was in Quebec last year for only a couple of days, the basics came back quite easily...I bet if I lived there for a year, I would pick up a LOT of the language. Totally different than the French in France.

Japanese - had a few gigs there, just know a few words and phrases; if a Japanese visitor was lost, I could likely help them find their way.

Bits of German and Italian (thanks to early voice training).

[Russian Blue]

English - fluent

Finnish - basic understanding - mother's side of family is Finnish - Mitä kuuluu? Hyvä pulla! *lol*

French - not fluent, but can read/speak if needed

Czech - husband's family is Czech/Slovac - Dobrý den

Latin - I was tired of French, so took 3 years of Latin in school! Ubi est canis?

[prechrswife]

English (with a southern U.S. accent )

Spanish (some, but very out of practice--took it in high school)

Mandarin (few words and phrases--hello, good bye, thank you, I don't want it, I love you.)

[kokopup]

English----fluent southernese
Dutch -----limited- Can communicate and read. I lived in the Netherlands for 3 years and learning the language was difficult because 70% of the Dutch speak English.

[ramanth]

English - native language and fluent

French - took 2 years in high school and only remember a smattering of words (hi, bye, yes, no, thank you, ect.) and two phrases; 'what time is it?' and 'In english, please'.

German - hosted exchange students in high school and learned some naughty words and the usual 'hi, bye, yes, no, thank you'.

Spanish - generic words again. No complete sentences.

Samoan - slowly learning this. I know a few words and phrases. Picking up on some Hawaiian as well.

ASL - had a deaf neighbor who would babysit us when I was 8 yrs old. She taught me some words and phrases, but I can only sign 'I love you' now.

[Husky_mom]

Ingles, Espanol, Y la Lengua de Amor.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL......

lol.. had to be my bro.. hehehe

[smokey the elder]

English (American style, not the Queen's); I can speak basic Spanish and read it better than I speak it. I had some German in college and can count, know a few phrases (Guten Morgen, danke, bitte, etc.) Because of martial arts training I used to be able to count to 10 in Korean and Japanese, but, alas, those brain cells have gone to the Rainbow Bridge...

[Barbara]

German-native
English
French
Italian

... that's the ones I can speak...

Spanish- can read a newspaper- when I speak it comes out Italian
Latin

Greek - enough to ask for menus and busses

Japanese -learned it through 3 years but forgot most of it.

..and very few words in Polish (like tanie meble which means cheap furniture)
and I can count in Finnish and know that a a moose is a hirvi and a Hamburger is a Hampurilainen (i.e. when you speak of a person who lives in Hamburg, Germany)

[Asiel]

English
French
Spanish
Chinese (Mandarin)
German
Some Italian
Does Latin count...lol?

[RICHARD]

lol.. had to be my bro.. hehehe

Amor?

THat's how I pick up more relatives.

[dab_20]

English
Spanish- Thanks to my boyfriend (He's from Colombia), I am around his family all the time and have picked it up very fast. I can understand it very well and can speak some basic sentences, just not have in depth conversations. I speak like a four year old hehe I think I learned more Spanish in 6 months with my boyfriend than 2.5 years in Spanish class
I am wanting to learn it very fluently because I'm going into nursing. We have been doing "a sentence a day". It helps tremendously!

Unless I can speak it, I don't consider it knowing the language. I know some words here and there in German (my grandpa is from Germany), Swedish (went to Swedish camp), and Italian (very similar to Spanish). But I don't consider myself "knowing" those languages.
