    Well, since I already know english and spanish, I'm already bilingual. But, im currently learning a little hit of sign language. Beware, some words look like others, and most of then are 'dirty' words.

    I took german for two semesters of high school. I went to a community college for 2 years that didn't offer it which sucks because i wanted to minor in it :c but this year since I transferred i'm taking it again! i know very minimal phrases but i'd be very lost if i ever did get the chance to go to Germany.

    I'm currently learning Japanese at the moment and is self taught. I've been learning for quite some time, mostly off and on sort of thing. I'm hoping to learn Japanese in the next few years or by the end of the year despite being at basic level.

    At the moment Iḿ taking a third year of French at my high school but I feel like Iḿ going to forget 101% of everything I learned here lmao.

    One day I want to understand Japanese better as my extent of the language is random words and a small part of me wants to learn a bit of Italian as well due to having a friend there!

    Oddly enough, it feels like more than half of my high school speaks Spanish but I have 0 interest in the language. Iḿ weird I guess.

    I want to lean Japanese because...I...want to watch raw anime!
    Uhm. Yeah.

    I also have a few years of French schooling, and I can hold an extremely boring and bland conversation. I can put people to sleep with my French! Aren't I good.

    I've been on and off with Japanese for a little over a year now.

    I also tried to learn Mandarin and Cantonese, but let's face it, if you didn't grow up with those languages, it's a VERY uphill battle.>_>

    I grew up with Hebrew, but learning other languages has been tough. I can kinda understand Spanish and, to a lesser extent, Japanese, but communicating back is almost impossible... T_T

    Trying to learn German currently! Duolingo is a decent program for those trying to learn any language.

    i speak english and chinese on a daily basis, but i'm currently learning japanese! it's self-taught and i'm making good progress :D
    i'm also interested in french, but i've never gotten down to actually learning it xD
    we should actually make a group or something (via idk, discord or even just a thread) so we can all converse in the language we wish to learn, and therefore help each other out! eg a group for learning jap or a group for learning french etc
    does anyone want to? :)
    ((y'all probably won't see this if you don't watch the thread because i'm lazy to tag :3)

    I studied Japanese for a couple of years in college. It's hard, but I'd like to learn more on my own.

    I took up Spanish classes in school from 7th - 10th grade, but most of what I learned kind of fell right through my brain. I would love to learn Russian or German some day, but I don't know if I have the motivation to keep up the studies.

    I was learning Japanese, Thai and some European language.
    But just got too busy to keep up the practice.

    I need to pick up the pace again.

    Well I know hindi and English, I'm also learning Japanese. I study Japanese whenever I get time.
    I know basic words and phrases of Spanish and Dutch but it can't be called learning since I just learnt the words not the language. I am planning on doing Spanish after Japanese but yeah we'll see. For now I'm sticking to Japanese and improving my english more.
