    I can understand German, but I can't speak it very well yet. Don't know if that makes any sense. [​IMG]

    I speak Portuguese and English fluently. I can manage French, Italian, and Spanish.
    Also, I'm learning Chinese and Japanese (I could use some help with those) and I love it! Especially Japanese!

    I'm hoping to completely master all of them in the next 3 years or so and my final goal is to speak 14 languages, or more.

    Any kind soul out there who would like to help me with the Asian languages? xD

    Fluent in Dutch and English, and good enough in German to do a professional job interview in 75% German 25% English (as I proved to myself this morning).

    Yes. Been there.

    I've been living in Belgium for a while now so I know French well, I've passed C1 level exams. Like I can read a newspaper article and while there might be some words I don't exactly know, I've realised the same is often true for English articles.

    My accent is still really disgusting though and somehow a lot worse than those with a comparable level to mine - I can hear how bad it is (more and more so as my French has got better) so I guess at least that means I can recognise what's wrong with it, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna fix it anytime soon.

    I don't think there are many native English speakers who speak French as well as I do, unless they had exposure at a young-ish age, so it's one thing I allow myself to be a bit smug about. :grin:

    I've taken classes in Spanish and German but I can barely do a simple conversation so they definitely wouldn't count.

    I can (almost) speak English and I'm learning Japanese.

    The school's making me learn French up to GCSE but I don't care for French. nor can I speak it.

    Native-level fluency: English, Spanish. Though, my Spanish has a heavier American accent.

    Understand it in written form somewhat: French (I took it in school for several years, but the oral comprehension always gets me.).
