Here we go...

German
mother tounge, native speaker

English
somewhat fluent, would like to use it more in practice. I also start to think in English from time to time :D

Dutch
i can understand it more than speak it myself, since i'm living near the dutch border. Also had it for 2 years in school, but forget pretty much of it.

French
the only word i will always remember is le velo (bike) and i dunno why it got stuck in my head :lol:


I'd like to learn more about Finnish, i really like the sound of it. But so far i just manage the things a tourist learns there. Keskusta!

Ok, so these are the languages that I speak:

:arrow: English: Yea, I know that I do a lot of grammar mistakes, but I do what I can >.< Being sincere, I started to learn English from videogames :mrgreen:

:arrow: Russian: And that's my true mother tongue, I hope to never forget it ^^

:arrow: Spanish: Just I MUST to know it, I have no way to go, because I'm actually living in Spain for eight years :P

And... nothing more :oops: I would like to learn some artificial language, like the Quenya [Tolkien Elves' language]

Well, I've been living in Czech Republic for almost a year now, I'll be studying this year in Czech, so I'm guessing I have to know it good. I still mix up cases and I don't know some words, but I can manage, I think. :P

I am American. I speak English. That's kind of all. :( I took Spanish in high school and then gamely forgot it.

Makes me sad, but I don't have the discipline to learn another Language on my own and I'm not going to classes anymore....

so, I speak :
German as mothertounge
English- I guess it's ok, but my written English has to be better than my spoken English, because I have nearly no chance to practise it (and sometimes, I also think and even dream in English :wink: )
Frensh- learned it for several years, but it never really made sense to me...... (as long as you don't count: et boom, c'est le choc :roll: xD)
Latin- learned it for several years, too, but never unterstood something... even got my small latinum but I have no idea how I managed this :roll:
Italian- learned it for some months and remember nothing about it xD

I would like to learn:
Finnish and maybe practise my English more...... I guess there are more languages I would like to speak, but can't think about more right now.... maybe I'll add some more later :wink: :roll: xD

Greek as my native language (you'd know if you saw my first topic here :P ) but
it was english I learned first coz my mother's a foreigner. 8)

I'd like to learn
Spanish (inspired mostly by latin songs) and
Russian (coz I think speaking russian sounds really cool :D )

I must be the only Greek guy here lol... and I've also noticed that there are a lot of Turkish ppl around here. Just so you'd know, I'm NOT a rascist and I don't have anything against the Turks (as many Greeks have and vice versa). :lol:

I had two years of Latin, really loved it and thought it really interesting. Received two "Cum Laude" awards in the national latin exam. Haha, guess my work payed off, even though i can't really remember anything.
I speak English of course, since i live in America.
And i really, really, really, want to learn how to speak Japanese. I want to live there one day so i am determined as ever to learn that language.
After two years of watching anime i know some, but not much :D
I feel so undereducated with all of these people who speak this many languages. That is one reason i don't like the USA right now, we are not universal enough :evil:
Sorry if i brought up any heated feelings with that last sentence, i just really detest the U.S. right now and am ashamed of what has happened because of us......

That depends on which part of Canada you are from.
All the Canadians from Quebéc speak French, but in the other states it is English.
