Spanish, English, Japanese and French. Also according to my wife I speak a very fluent geekish.

M.

English, Spanish, French, Russian, Mandarin, Japanese and Swahili (does lord of the rings elfish count?)

I'm from the Ozarks so I don't know if I technically speak English.

I'm from Belgium.

I can speak Dutch, English, French. I also speak German because, well, my mother is German

A quick sidenote though, it would surprise me if the Dutch speak more languages then the Belgians. They don't really have the same problem as the belgians. In Belgium there are 3 language zones. A French, Dutch and German zone. Learning at least French is obligated for the Flemish.

Anyway, i had to learn all 4 languages as described above in school. sorry for the rambling.

Polish, English, German, Spanish and some Arabic, though could only talk about some food, the weather and likes/ dislikes in the last one.

Klingon and english

Native English speaker, know some Spanish, though I am learning some more, and am learning German too.

Finnish and English (and some Swedish and German)

English, French and German pretty much all reasonably well tough i have a bad habit of mixing them up like thinking im saying something in english then it comes out in french heh XD

english and german. some french. i can talk about girls and cooking utensils in hebrew. i understand catalan when i'm drunk. my japanese is getting better - hopefully when i go there next year i won't suck.

I speak English naturally, and have learned enough German and Finnish to politely convey that I don't speak German or Finnish.

Does Pig Latin count?

...oh and some Arabic, which includes many Hebrew-directed insults in Hebrew.

French, German, Russian.

I am from Texas.

I can speak 3 in conversation , 5 if i can reply in english ( i do understand what they are saying but sometimes i cant think fast enough to respond in the same language back
so you get mix of 2 or 3 different language in my replies rofl )

English and Russian FTW

English, Pashtu, and a smattering of Dari (military) Took French in HS and college so could probably get by in a restaurant.

I find it unfortuate that we in the US have not promoted the study of languages in the past although Spanish is becoming a neccesity recently with the influx of Spanish speaking people coming from Latin and South America.

bdw ist belgiums go speak atliest 3. not the dutch.

I almost went to Latvia in high school for an exchange program.

I speak English, can understand Russian and Spanish, an can speak some Japanese and Korean

English as my Primary language, with French, Spanish and Italian as my Secondary languages, but not as fluently as when I was at school so very basic conversational, really I'd just about manage if I was dropped in a country that spoke in any of my Secondary languages at the moment, but given a couple of days and I'd be able to recall more, but like anything if you don't use it everyday you're not going to be much use for a while.

Obviously I speak English fluently, and I can speak Arabic conversationally, though it really depends on who I'm talking to. I can manage with Levantine, Iraqi, or Gulf, but God help me if it's an Egyptian or other North African.

I've also got a smattering of German and Spanish, but I'm far from conversational.

Jusk won, I can bearly speck this won az it iz.

I can read French really well, but greatly struggle with speaking it, put a book in front of me and I'm fine, start talking in french and I can't understand most of whats said.

I speak English.

Je peux parlé en francais.

Und Ich spreche die Deutsch


that's in descending order of how good I am at them

Finnish + English + German. Could not add Swedish eventough I can read it but not speak..

dammmnnn juu datshmen!

English+Icelandic (Which is basically ancient Norwiegan but tell that to an Icelander and he will uppercut you out of Nationilistic pride)

First language actually, english was my second.

I learned French for over ten years as mandatory study. I got an 'U' ungraded fail at my O level exams (now GCSE), that normally means a mark of under 5%. I should have been allowed to drop foreign language class as I have never been wired for it at all.

English, French and German.

3. English, Danish and Icelandic (although the last one is pretty much only used when I'm in Iceland).

Well not only can you see the little icelandic flag on my username but I can also give you a copy paste of icelandic writing i wrote. And there are more than a few thousand, lets start with the 350k people that live here plus the people that live in Canada and more.
