    I've noticed that a lot of people on EC are from all over the world which is pretty awesome so I was wondering what languages can you guys speak? either fluently or intermediate in, please say if you're fluent in it.

    So I'm fluent in English (obviously), Ilocano (Filipino dialect), Dayak, Bhasa Malay (Malaysian), and Cham.

    So please tell what languages you can speak, it's cool to learn how many people on here can speak another language besides their native tongue.

    I can speak English and some Chinese. And I took French classes in middle/high school, so I remember a bit of that. Not much, though. XD I should spend more time studying languages...

    I speak English poorly.
    My knowledge of Welsh is limited, as is my German and French. At some point I should really focus on upgrading from rusty and stilted to conversational.

    Sadly only English...

    I did French, Spanish AND German in secondary school... but it's just never stuck. Language has never been my forte really, despite doing English Language at A level. >.>

    I went to a Language specialist school, so we were required to do at least two language GCSEs... and I picked German because it was German or Drama. >.>

    I just find it funny that I sat through 5 years of Spanish, 3 years of French and 2 years of German and... I literally cannot speak a word of any of them haha. I know some very basic words of Spanish and that's it >.>
