EspaƱol! I loved it!!! I even took the Spanish CLEP test for kicks and giggles while in HS.
I live in TX now so it has been kind of useful. I miss it, and have lost quite a bit. I used be able to be able to conjugate verbs without problems.

I took Russian, but Russian vocabulary was never my strong suit, and now I've forgotten most of it. I remember enough that I could get by as a tourist if I were to visit Russia again (I could ask where the bathrooms are, how much something costs, what time is it, navigate the subway, etc.) but I wouldn't be able to hold a conversation with someone. Some of the people in my office are from Russia, so I overhear their conversations sometimes and can pick out some words, but not enough to figure out what they're actually talking about.

I took English and French, both of which were mandatory all the way through elementary and high school.

French. And Latin in junior high. I don't really remember much of either, I'm afraid to say.

@Cherrybee: wow , I am impressed. I can read and understand exactly what you wrote, but there is no way I can respond with more than: Ja, ich auch!
And I am sure that's probably incorrect, too!
