What other languages do you speak?

[Mjolnirs]

I speak a little German and can get by in a slow conversation. I have difficulty understanding it when it is spoken, but I can translate about 50-75% if written.

I took 3 years of HS Spanish and can still understand some of it. I hope to brush up on that soon.

Took a trip to Montreal several years ago and bought some French tapes prior to the trip. Even though I knew English was spoken I wanted to learn some French. Funny story: one of the phrases on the tape was "the key does not work", well when we checked into our hotel, THE KEY DID NOT WORK. I was able to go to the front desk and tell them so and relay what room I was in. Later in the trip I purchased some tickets to an event using French. I was very proud of myself.

Le français, mes amis.

I speak French as a first language, English as second. I used to take spanish in class..The only word I can remember is ''Hola''.

I actually prefer English to my first language..And I can't tell why. I am not the best..But if you can be where I live, you'll know I am basicly ultra-bilingual, they all suck in English here .

Sad I have problems speaking it..Their fault they can't learn it..Backfires on me as I am lacking practice.

Well, I assume you live in Quebec. What part?

My partner lived for a while in Saint Hyacinthe, and he met very few people there who spoke English very well. This amazes me. I appreciate the bi-lingualness of Canada, but I'd never really realized how HEGEMONIC French is in some parts.

Keep trying Huckleberryhound, you'll get there. I speak English, Cantonese and Mandarin fairly fluent.

HEY, I thought he did pretty good!

[freezie]

Well..Not far from Montreal..In a little city Called Repentigny.

And yes..It Amazes me too. There is many people in Québec who can't even talk french, and some who can't speak English.

Result: English stay with English, French with French. We basicly got 2 countries in a single province.

Sad.

English is technically my first language, since I speak it very fluently and well. However, my first word was in Thai. I learned it through my parents. I can't start a conversation or speak in complex sentences so well, but at least I'm good at responding to questions. I guess it would be called basic knowledge of the language. I can't write Thai though.

Do you think you understand it better than you speak it?

YES! that is the perfect way to describe it >_>

[hecter]

I speak a smattering of French.

Je parle un petit peu de Francais.

I really suck at it though.

[Honibaz]

LOL.

[Iliad]

Russian is first language, English is second and I'm learning french for the second year now at school. Oh and latin too

[Honibaz]

I suck at French, probably because I'm not very interested in the language itself.

[Cronus]

I like turtles

Like most people in the UK my language skills are less than I would like. I can get by in French, perhaps better than Spanish becuase I learnt it at school, but am studying Spanish now and my folks moved to Spain so I'm getting there with that too. I take every advantage to learn approriate insults in foreign languages whenever the chance arises. I have a Finnish friend (who incidentally speaks Finnihs, English, German, French and Spanish pretty much interchangeably) who I am currently mastering the art of pig based insults from. Finnish is a crazy language. Any language where the noun changes based on the usage is just plain wierd!

[gethine]

i speak english as a first language.
i also speak well in the international language of welsh

[AlgyTaylor]

English is my first language

Can speak a small amount of French, mostly basic tourist-y stuff though
Speak a bit of German too, not as well as French but enough to make myself understood

I'm currently learning Welsh (southern dialect). My Welsh skills are pretty basic at the moment, but I'm improving. I speak to my dad in Welsh about most simple things (food, weather, what he's been doing and so on) - it's only when I get on to things like politics, football & current affairs that I have to resort to English

[firth4eva]

done a french gcse and can do an alright conversation

[Simonov]

i speak croatian - it's my mothernal language. (that means i can speak and understand serbian - they're much alike expect they write in cyrilic and we in latinic alphabet).

i learned slovenian while watching their TV channels.it's also similar language.

learned english in my elementary and high school and from movies and internet naturally.

attended course of french and learned it at high school but haven't spoken it for a quite some time so my speech's a little rusty but can understand a lot of common talk.

and finally i learned latin at highschool but remember only the basics now.

by the way never learned it but i understand a lot of spanish - much word are similar with french and latin words.could probably understand basic talk but don't know to speak it.

would also like to learn russian in the future so i have all three major european language groups covered - romanic, germanic and slavic.

It's "Jibberish" and it's an actual language. Stop trying to be funny.

[Honibaz]

I still doubt that. Say Conquer Club in gibberish.
