How many languages can you speak?

English obviously Arabic (Iraqi & Libyan ) Not mega fluent in Arabic but enough to get by and get me out of trouble! Little bit of French and Spanish

I speak french (first language) and english fluently. I am limited in spanish, italian and german, I can read it and understand a lot, but don't ask me to talk to you in that language.

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

Nice....I'm fluent in American, Australian, and Canadian too. :-D In addition I speak Tagalog and Japanese.

I didn't know "American" was a language.

English and Yoruba.

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!

THANK YOU. My point exactly :grumble:

Slangy English Danish Spanish.

English, Portuguese, and some Spanish

You know, some people of other nationalities choose English names. I have several Korean and Chinese friends who do not use their real name, and have picked North American names.

Thats true and it also applies with the surnames (for some). I used to have a boss who is a pure Chinese and her husband is also pure Chinese but they're using the Spanish surname Santiago which according to them, they just 'bought' it. Dunno how did they do that.

in fact Chinese have this thing of having two names, one in English or Spanish and the other in Chinese.

English, and I've been trying to learn Russian for 20 years, but am still a beginner. If I ever finally get that, I want to work on Spanish and ASL.

English, Welsh, French and some Spanish and basic Italian.

Yep! My sister lived and worked in China for 4 years, teaching English. They all have English names, and some of the kids had really funny names, like Ocean and Tiger!

I live in Taiwan and some of my friends have some really crazy names! (Lion, Water, Potato, Plasma, Pineapple). They pick English names because they are easier for western people to pronounce apparently.

Edit - I speak English, a little Mandarin and a little French.

English and Spanish. I use the Spanish less now, but at one point in my life I began to have dreams in Spanish!

fluent in English (native language)

can get by in French and Arabic, plus I can read and write in Arabic (although my Arabic's a really bizarre mixture of fus-ha (classical), Levantine dialect and Gulf dialect, it's a wonder that Arabs don't roll on the floor laughing at me when I try to speak it - for an English equivalent, imagine shakespearian English mixed with London and Canadian English or something like that!)

just restarted studying German and found I remembered a lot more than I thought I would

can speak a phrase or two in Spanish, Zulu, Afrikaans, Welsh and I have quite a lot of Latin vocabulary from studying science, but no grammar. I can tell you stuff like "cerebral cortex" means "brain skin/outer layer" and "medulla oblongata" means "oblong shaped middle bit" (btw, for any science students, this is a really good trick for learning anatomy, because the translations of Latin names are very descriptive, if you remember the translation it's really easy to match it up to the part being described)
