    ..not really, but I wish I did. :(

    How many languages do you know? How did you learn them and how much time did it take you? What language do you primarily use at home? Discuss! 8D

    I speak English...and that's pretty much it. Though I do know a bit of Japanese. A lot of from self-teaching, but I'm pretty decent if I do say so myself. I'm awful at writing it though. Can't wait as very soon I'm getting proper lessons in College. Gonna be sweet.

    English is my first language its also the one I use at home. Where I live you have the option to learn French when you're six which my parents chose for me so I've been learning French for ten years now this is my eleventh, I can't quite remember how/when I learned it I just remember not knowing French and eventually I did. I'm definitely going to try and become officially bilingual.

    English and I'm learning Spanish. I know some swear words in German, and various other small words in various languages. But fluently, it's only two, and I'm not even that fluent in Spanish...
    I can read Korean to a small, small, small extent and it takes me a while.

    I speak English at home.

    I only speak English, but I know a handful of easy to know Japanese words and how to swear in French and Italian. I learned bits of Spanish in HS, but I've forgotten most of it.

    I only know English. For some reason, I simply cannot learn new languages. I have been trying for years and years, but nothing sticks.

    My Spanish is better than my English, but that's probably because I can't speak English, and I have a school education in Spanish, as sparse as that is.

    I only speak English. I learned so much Spanish in high school, but I don't remember most of it.

    I've also learned a tad bit of Japanese and French, self-taught, but that's so minuscule I don't count it. I went after those languages because I like them a lot.

    But I like the English language the most, anyway. <3

    English, Filipino, Basic Mandarin.

    But here it's sort of not fair,
    locally, there are several sub-languages if that are like Filipino but different somewhat.
    Well, what would you expect from an archipelago?
    Here's a small list of the one's I speak:
    Bisaya
    Illonggo
    Tagalog<<Nearest to Filipino

    The only language aside from English that i've learned at all is Spanish. And even now I don't recall much from my two Spanish classes, and I haven't taken much of an interest in any other.

    I speak mainly english, but I know quite a bit of French as well, but I've gotten quite rusty with it. I think the most in depth conversation I had in french was with a foreign exchange student who couldn't help themselves from giggling from my english to french accent and my mispronunciations. <-<

    I speak two different languages. English and Vietnamese. I tend to slur both languages together giving me a weird accent, but I primarily speak English.

    I know English, Spanish, French, Japanese, and a little bit of German and Italian. Unfortunately, I'm only fluent in English.

    I speak english and I'm learning spanish in school.

    I wish I could learn Japanese. It's always been my dream to go to Japan, and I think that speaking its native language would make it better. c:

    I'm fluent at English and Russian. ^_^ But I never write or read Russian anymore since there's no need to given that we live in the US so you can really only get me to speak it, haha.

    Would love to learn more Japanese in the future. I took three semesters of French in college as well but that went in one ear and out the other. So hard for it to stick without immersion.

    I really don't like languages at all, I utterly suck at them -_- I speak Dutch, naturally, and I'm actually quite good at speaking English, but that's about it. I've tried French and German, but it just doesn't work for me. At least I can speak English, that's pretty much enough for me :D
