    English and I can get by with Spanish, French,and Portuguese (Brazilian). Not particularly good in any of the three but pretty rusty in French and Portuguese.

    English, Turkish, American, South African, Australian, Canadian and I suppose many more, Excluding the Turkish, the rest are fluent :)))

    How is American and Australian not English? I suppose Kiwi is another language too??

    I speak English (the type from England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, New Zealand, Australia and the USA!) and a little Maori, I used to be quite competent with Maori but what you don't use you lose, I'm sure it's still in there somewhere though!

    Dutch (mothertongue), English and German. Also I speak some words Frisian, French, Spanish and Russian.

    My new years resolution is to learn German fluently and speak better Russian.

    I speak 3 languages: English, French, and Italian.

    I sign one language:Auslan (Australian Sign Language) so I guess that counts as 4. (No I am not deaf).

    English and French fluently.. some Spanish (French replaced Spanish in my brain after I moved from Texas to France) and a tiny bit of ASL (I'm losing it because I don't get to use it :/)

    I've got a BA in French and an MA in Translation and teach secondary school French. I also have qualifications in German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Norwegian, but can't say I speak them that well. I can understand Spanish pretty well and am able to teach it to a basic level, same for Italian. I have taught German in the past, but not for a long time now so my German is very rusty!

    I'd really love to improve my Italian.

    Five - French (native), English, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. I've been learning German and Turkish on my own for a bit over an year, but I wouldn't quite say that I could speak either just yet, and I'm thinking about taking up Russian one of these days.

    I love languages!
