akanesarumara Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 First language/mother tongue: Hungarian. Foreign languages: English (quite fluent), German (quite fluent, although I shoud brush up on my conversation skills), and there are several languages I understand some things of, like (mostly spoken) Japanese and a very little of French Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora's Fox Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 A little French and Japanese and hint of German. Fluent in English. Maybe something else too but that's a secret. Link to post Share on other sites
Sussexdowns Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I am fluent in English (my first language), Italian, and I know a good amount of Greek. Link to post Share on other sites
Squick Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I speak English, of course, and some French. I started trying to learn Greek recently. Link to post Share on other sites
Chrysanthalis Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 My first language is English. I know some French; my understanding of grammar is pretty good, I've been told repeatedly that my accent is great, but my vocabulary is pathetic. I'm too self-conscious to practice with actual people most of the time. (Does anyone know of any good place on the internet where I can practice, by the way?) I've made some attempts to learn a few other languages (Japanese, Welsh, Romanian) but I haven't gotten very far for various reasons. I really need to find some good language learning tools. Also I'm taking every single language class I can get my hands on in college. :-P Link to post Share on other sites

mabool Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 German, Greek, English, French, Spanish, Latin. I also understand written Italian almost perfectly (I can read comic books without any trouble at all) and I can generally guess what a (written) Dutch or Portuguese sentence is about.

iambubbaq Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I speak two. Both Japanese and English. I speak a little Spanish and Italian but not enough to say I can actually speak them. Link to post Share on other sites
Abricot Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I'd say 2.5. Fluent English, decent French, fairly basic German. My ability in other languages is far too basic to count :P Link to post Share on other sites
Janus the Fox Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Only one, but I wish I was fluent in my own native welsh language :( Link to post Share on other sites
goodbye Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I put 4: English, French, German, and Italian. :D If I actually stick to it, I can probably finish with Esperanto in a month or two (making 5, woot!) I'm also currently studying Chinese and Japanese, and when I'm done with those, I'll have tons of other languages to go through... If it were possible, I would probably marry the abstract concept of language. XD Link to post Share on other sites
Hexagon Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 I speak english and spanish. I understand some french, most italian and portugese, and I speak physics. Link to post Share on other sites
Bijou Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I am as fluent as I can be* in English and I am mostly fluent in German. I took three semesters of French, but I don't know how much of it I've retained. Because of my doubt in my French, I chose the "2" option. *Explanation: Personally, I don't feel that anyone could be perfectly fluent in any language, as there will always be words which people do not know. Then again, I also realize that my definition of "fluent" does not match with the dictionary definition, but I stand by my statement. As for those of you learning Esperanto - where/how are you doing this? Ever since I found out about it, I've been curious. I would love to learn it, as well. Link to post Share on other sites
Xanag Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I speak English as my native tongue, and can communicate effectively in Japanese. I am also currently learning both Hebrew and French. Link to post Share on other sites
Måskemigselvetsted Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I can obviously communicate in written English (if not, I would probably have left the site by now. Unless all I think I'm writing actually are nonsense and I don't understand it when people try to tell me?) and oral, too. Still studying it (in school) even though I feel like I'm moving nowhere. Danish, my mother tongue, of course. And some French, which I'm working on improving, but not enough that I have the confidence to vote "three". And what's that about learning useful languages? My language-learning-wish-list consist predominantly af unuseful languages. It's going to be hard to decide which one to choose after I have taken French to a level where I would be content with having one more languages to learn (because I'm not planning to stop with neither French or English nor Danish) - probably the one I feel for at the moment. :) Link to post Share on other sites
The Great WTF Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 English is my first language and I'm decent at Japanese. I can swear in about ten languages (multilingual father who thought it was funny to teach his three year old to cuss in Gaelic at customers) but otherwise I don't know anything from those languages.

Trava u doma Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I went ahead and voted "3". I speak my native language, obviously, I'm quite okay with English (the worst is with speaking, though - never had much occasion to, to be honest...) And, well... German, so-so. It used to be better only recently (like half a year? I've been for a week to Germany for a student exchange, where I talked only German and it helped a LOT), but then I totally stopped using it and it's somewhat rusty now >.> I'v also been learning some Russian (a love of mine).
