    Do any of you speak multiple languages? I'm working on becoming fluent in German, been learning the language for about two and a half years. Would be cool also if someone on here would want to speak German with me!

    English. And when I'm drunk, my high school Spanish comes back (and my English gets a little worse).

    Dutch (native) and near-fluent English. Average German but following a course at B1 level to improve it (I finished my homework literally two minutes ago (I'm too old for homework)). Very basic Spanish.

    Aside from English? I can understand German, but I'm still learning to speak it, if that makes any sense.

    I'm fluent in English and Khmer.
    English is my first language and Khmer is my second, I was brought up speaking both languages (but fun fact, Khmer was actually the first language I learnt to speak but once I started school, English slowly took over).

    I studied Mandarin from around age 6 to age 11 so I can remember a teeny weeny bit but barely anything.

    I've just started studying my 4th year of French so I would say I'm pretty good.

    I studied Spanish for two years but I dropped it now cuz I hate Spanish.

    I'm currently teaching myself Russian and hopefully German soon.

    I have a really big passion for languages and I love languages (except Spanish lol)

    Fluent in English since it's my native language. I've been learning Japanese for almost five years, but I'm still far from fluent because I don't work very hard at it (though I speak it well enough that people online who talk to me in Japanese usually don't suspect that I'm not fluent unless I tell them). Also I'm learning Spanish since it's required that we take two years of foreign language in high school, and Spanish seemed like the easiest one available (and it really is pretty easy, as it resembles English).

    I speak Finnish(my native language), some sentences in Swedish(not many because it doesn't interest me at all), German a little more than Swedish(although I get really nervous every time I have to speak German).... And, last but obviously not least, English :lol:

    Ah yes, that counts as well. I can do this in Swedish.

    And I can say how I'm at home getting drunk in my underwear in Finnish.

    Portuguese, English, & I also learned French, but I'm not as fluent as in English. & a bit of Spanish, mostly because it's similar to Portuguese.

    Fluent in French and English, have been learning Spanish for years (I can understand and write it pretty well, but speaking is harder) and just started studying German and Czech.

    I love languages, I want to be a polyglot. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I can fluently speak in English.Kind of fluent in Irish.Learning French and Germany in school.Also I learned a small bit of Spanish on Duolingo.In my opinion people should learn more languages as you'd never know when they come in handy.They can look good in a job interview or when you are getting a university course.
