-
English and ok with the basics in Canto and Mandarin.
-
In decreasing order of fluency: English, Korean, French, Spanish. Took Latin but remember none of it, not that I have anywhere to speak it.
-
Just English...I wish I could speak another language! I took many years of Spanish but I think I'd have to be immersed in the culture to really pick it up.
-
English and Albanian, and enough German to get directions, read a label, order food, etc.
Currently learning Serbian/Croatian and Arabic. -
I speak english and a wee bit of french (enough to understand what people are talking about). I am not super good at languages. My mom is amazing and can pick them up like that! She is fluent in four.
-
@Arden: Holy Mackeral Andies! That is amazing!
-
just english and conversational korean. used to be okay in spanish but forget that. maybe if i stay in mexico or spain for a year, it'll come back to me.
-
@Arden: Very cool, how do you choose the languages you decide to learn?
-
I speak English and a little French.
-
@spaniellove: I spent time living in Albania, and we're moving to Kosovo next year so Serbian/Croatian are useful languages for the region. German I picked up from my Mom, she lived there for several years, and then I learned some extra on my own to ease travel in German speaking countries.
Arabic is just a personal interest. Farsi is next.

English & pretty decent Korean. I know a couple words in Chinese & Spanish

Fluent in English (obviously), semi-fluent in Spanish (can read/write/speak/understand) but all very slowly, and an extremely limited ability with speaking Hebrew.
-
English and a little Spanish.
-
Cantonese, Toisanese, and 6 years of schooling in Spanish of which I remember very little unfortunately.. but I have a language cd which I hope will help refresh my memory. I took a year of Mandarin and think I could pick that up quickly if I were just more exposed to it.
-
English, Tagalog, Spanish, Swedish. I took Spanish in school but I think it's come to the point where my Swedish is a little better, sadly, that doesn't say much. I also know a few phrases in Korean.
-
English and Japanese. I studies Spanish for 6 years but never used it, so I barely remember it.
-
English (mother tongue), Italian (speaking and reading), Spanish (speaking, reading, writing), German (speaking).

Fluent in English and French, conversational in Spanish. Eventually I will become fluent in Spanish and start learning Japanese.
-
Five; english obviously, very fluent in Cantonese, Fujianese, passable in Mandarin and some Spanish.
@PurplePumps: "Toisanese"
Thank you! I've always wondered how to spell that in English! -
@purplepumps: I speak toisanese too! It's so rare to find someone that does. Do you plan on teaching your LO that or Cantonese? My family will speak Cantonese when we're out but at home we speak only Toisanese. I know Cantonese will be more useful than Toisanese but I feel a little awkward speaking it at home since I'm so use to the other dialect.
-
English and French.
-
Only English and very little ASL (American Sign Language) from college. I really wish I would have kept up with ASL and Spanish!
-
@roccoandkirby: Where are you from? It's fairly popular here in Boston. I hear many of the older generation speak it when I'm in Chinatown, sometimes more than Cantonese! My family grew up speaking Canto at home cause my dad is from HK and doesn't speak Toisan and I am more comfortable with Canto, so LO will be mostly learning that. Any Toison learned will just be picked from my maternal grandparents and that side of the family. My greatgrandmother spoke another very different dialect that I dont know what it is called, but I saw her only a few times a year growing up and managed to understand most of it, so I bet even if your LO doesnt hear Canto constantly at home, he/she would get enough exposure to pick it up very easily.
-
@PurplePumps: @roccoandkirby: My SIL speaks that but my niece speaks Cantonese. But she can understand Toisanese even though she does not speak it.
-
English is my first language. I took 9 years of Spanish immersion classes and barely know any Spanish! It's sad. I never did a study abroad or was in a situation where I had to use it in the everyday world, so it fell away. But I understand some stuff and can speak rudimentarily. Same with French -- I remember some from my high school French class, but could never have a conversation in it.
-
@Arden: Wow!! Unique and awesome!
I speak English, Cantonese, and Mandarin. I can by with conversational Khmer. I understand, but only can say a few words of Hokkien compliments of my grandma (mom's family is from Fujian). I took 7 years of Spanish and even CLEP-ed it for College, but hardly use it now. If I was immersed in it, I'm sure it'd come back to me. I read better than I can speak it though.
-
Um... just English
-
I speak English and enough Cantonese to order at restaurants and talk about the weather! I wish that I could say my years of French classes did anything for me.
