Poll: Do you know more than one language?

[AmosMoses]

"Listen lady, I only speak two languages: English and bad English"

 

[BlueRawen]

I know Danish, English, and some German.
I understand some Swedish and most Norwegian.
Also i know very little french.

 

[Prince Regent]

Dutch, Frisian, English and my German isn't that bad either.

 

[similar.squirrel]

Fluent in Hungarian and English, sort of conversant in broken German and Irish. I need to work on those last two. Irish-to-Hungarian translator is probably a small enough niche to pay well, if you know where to look.

 

[thedevilscousin]

I speak English, Danish, Norwegian, Icelandic and I remember some of my Japanese

 

[M0rp43vs]

English(very well otherwise I wouldn't be able to post on this site)
And Malay(Poorly but just enough to pass the exams and now I don't have to speak it again, hurrah)

 

[JoJo]

Only English, though I know a little French from school and a few words of Japanese, no-where near enough of either of those though to actually be able to speak it.

 

[ashiba27]

yes, English as well as enough spanish, french and italian to survive holidays in each respective country.

 

[BabyRaptor]

I speak English, some Spanish, Military, Sarcasm and Pig Latin.

I also know ASL, but I don't think that counts as speaking.

I wanted to take Latin in high school...After 7 years of voice training, I have a basic knowledge of the language and I think it rather awesome. Sadly, my high school got rid of the class the year before I'd have been eligible.

 

[duktapeman90]

Well lets see, I know Java, C++, C#... oh you mean spoken languages. Then no, just English.

 

[Kavachi]

Dutch, English, French, German, Ancient Greek and Latin

 

[RuralGamer]

I was supposed to have learned to speak French in High School, but lets just say that the teachers weren't exactly inspiring and after two years I knew practically nothing and that was a long time ago so nothing really remains.

I'd like to learn another language eventually, probably German, Russian or Japanese (as you can see, I'm not entirely sure what to go for), but I never really have time and have no real need to immediately.

 

[freaper]

Talk to some Germans and they'll say Dutch is just a version of German .

Dutch and Flemish are actually the same, it's just that their accent grew apart over the last 50 years. Dutch and German split way before that. Also, people from Switzerland speak a different kind of German than the Germans, but it's still called German.

As for me: Dutch, Italian, French, English and a bit of German and Japanese (which I'm studying atm).

Apparently Latin and Greek counts too.

 

[TheFinalFantasyWolf]

I can speak in English and Turkish
I know a bit of Italian and Japanese (But not enough to have long conversations without getting stuck for a few words.....But I want to keep learning them, and I want to start learning German, Spanish, Mandarin and Arabic.

 

[Polite Sage]

Finnish and English, just a little bit of (compulsory) Swedish. Oh, and I'm currently studying Japanese.

 

[RoevsangerBoerge]

Danish, my mother language, and English

I don't speak it fluently though.
My grammar and spelling is fine, but my speaking vocabulary is flawed.

 

[Zorg Machine]

Swedish, English, some french, a little german and a tiny bit of chinese.

 

[NLS]

Can read Cyrillic.

Errr, which of Cyrillic languages?

Mine are: Russian (native), Ukrainian, English (weak), French (very weak).

Only the cyrillic alphabet though, mainly from Russia and Belarus. So I can read the characters and distinguish a supermarket from a restaurant (+any words influenced from the west), but I can't understand the languages themselves, only the alphabet.

 

[revolutionaification]

Supposedly I should be able to speak French as I've just sat an exam in it. In reality, I can manage some basic stuff but understand and communicate far better when it's written.

 

[Rienimportant]

I'm from the United States. English, French, and I'll be starting Arabic classes next year
