Foo - what languages do you speak?

Me

English,
Hindi,
Tamil,
Sanskrit (been a while though and its whacktarded)
a little bit of French on the side.

English (native),
ASL (fluent),
French, Italian, and Spanish (pidgin).

{edit** Oh, and I took latin in high school (damn I'm old) but I'm better with the pig dialect now.

English and some ASL.

English is my first language, despite having been born in Pittsburgh. I studied Spanish for 5 years in junior and señor high. I studied Italian for one semester in college. Oddly enough, I've probably retained more of the Italian than Spanish. I was a bit more mature and serious about studying the Italian, and I have made more of an effort to retain it. Sadly, when I was in Argentina a few years ago, my attempts at speaking Spanish resulted in a garbled mash of Italian and Spanish.

That's my problem with the romantic languages, too damn close to one another.

Looks like Italian and Spanish are early favorites here. I really wanna learn spanish but I want to give French a good go before I quit on it.


I have a friend who speaks French, Flemish and German fluently often switching from one to the other when talking with his folks. This is apart from English and he is learning Italian. Dude scares the s*it out of me.

English, Snowy talk, bike talk...... :)

English and French. I took an intro Cree course in my first year of university. The only thing I remember in Cree is the first line to 'found a peanut', and basic greeting.

The masters course that I'm enrolled in requires me to take an ancient language, either Greek, Latin or Hebrew. Leaning toward Hebrew or Greek.

English, Tagalog and some Pig-latin. I tried studying Spanish, German and French. Then I realized "WTF for?". Just saying.

English (native)
Japanese (light conversational, def not super fluent) Took a year in college. Hardest. Class. Evar.
Little Spanish from high school
Some Polish words from my old relatives.

Geek: Actionscript (fluent) Javascript, PHP, SQL, C++, XHTML, XML, CSS, Win-Batch, bash

ÉN beszél Magyar. I can speak and can type in Hungarian.

English and Klingon. I know I should really get out more!

English and Cantonese.

Native: Swedish
Other than that, English and some basic German.
And tiny bits and pieces of a few other languages. Not enough to get me through any kind of conversation, though. More like random bits of very little use... :D Irish, Dutch, Spanish, Russian.

Norwegian and Danish are almost the same as Swedish, so while I can't speak those languages, I really don't have to, as Swedish works fine. :)

Hmm. Let's see...

Besides mottled English, I'm pretty good at Ebonics.

Took French in school and I am picking up Spanish from the neighborhood.

I know the bad stuff in Chinese. Only because I got yelled at a lot by my Grandmother.

None.

I'm almost competent in English, well Kiwi to be exact.:p

I can remember the important basics from my high school German; hello, goodbye, where's the loo and I can't understand you.

Canadiannese and some broken english.

do you eat G'agh as well?

Actually that is Q'agh!:D

My favorite is the following:

Stuffed Todbaj Leg
by ter'eS
Slaughter a todbaj and remove the legs.

Remove and dice the muscles of the legs. Mix with diced naH (fruit or vegetables -- the word for each is the same in Klingon) and add unsweetened liquid yuch(chocolate) to smooth the mixture.

Once mixed, stuff the empty legs. Serve. (cold)

Recipe was sent by Koror, based on a recipe from the Klingon literary magazine "jatmey"

It baffles me why so many people think they can, or claim they can, speak other languages when they only know a few random words in it. My mother tongue is not English, and I see all the time when others try to show me they can speak my mother tongue. Just because you are able to order a beer at Octoberfest doesn't mean you speak German!!!
