I took Spanish in middle school and high school.
I took Korean in college.

I took Spanish, and still don't know Spanish. lol
-
I had Spanish in elementary, junior high, high school, and college. Um, I don't speak Spanish. I should be fluent! Haha. But I can get around a Spanish-speaking country okay for the basics and I can understand it more when I read it.
-
@mrsjazz: Same here! I only retained the basics!
-
Spanish! El burro sabe mas que tu.
-
Two years of a language course were required to graduate HS. I took 3 years of Spanish and barely remember any.
-
I've taken Latin, French, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese. For my phd program, I had to pass French and Spanish translation exams, which were translating academic texts with a dictionary, so that's basically what I can do, though I can kind of fudge my way through speaking the modern Romance languages if I'm in a place where they're spoken. And reading is much easier than speaking for me!
-
I took Spanish for two semesters. I can just about translate anything I see in Spanish by knowing every other word but I never actually practiced speaking it. Lol
Hola!
-
I took Spanish for three years in high school and still don't know a single thing.
-
We had French in 4th and 5th grade (I remember absolutely none of it). I took 3 years of Spanish in high school and a semester in college. Most of my Spanish knowledge comes from my students (about 1/3 of my pre-k kids are bilingual).
-
I took Spanish in middle and high school, and nothing in college. I'm glad to say that I am fully fluent in reading and speaking (and my husband tells me I have a really nice accent..winning!). Although it took me living in a Spanish-speaking countries for 4+ years to actually get to this point. After 1 year I was passably fluent, but now I'm at the point where I don't have to think of things and use grammatically correct sentence structure. And I'm a way better speller than my husband who is a native Spanish speaker, haha.

Took 2 years of Spanish and 2 years of American Sign Language...I know neither now.
-
2 years of Spanish in middle school. 3 years of French in high school. Minored in French in college, lived in France for several years and then did a non degree program in French translation. I wish I had kept up the Spanish or added another language.
-
I took French from the time I was 3 years old until...forever (into undergrad). I took two years of Italian in undergrad and one year of Spanish. I don't remember much Spanish or Italian, but am still fairly fluent in French.
-
I took Spanish from kindergarten till sophomore in high school. Then I had to take one semester in college of Spanish.
-
I took two years of German in high school, and can still remember some of it! I think if I went to Germany, I'd be able to get by at least a little. I wish I had taken Spanish, though, and still think about getting Rosetta Stone or something. Mandarin would be super helpful in my industry, too, but that just seems so daunting!
