    Just English. I'm Puerto Rican, my parents speak Spanish, yet I don't know the language. I tried learning a few times. I took Spanish 1-4 during my high school years, passed the regents tests, but learned nothing. I tried again two years ago with some Spanish language software. It was unsuccessful. I just can't seem to absorb this language. XD

  • English and American Sign Language. I only took 2 years of classes on ASL so I’m not amazing at it but when communicating with some of the deaf community I can understand a good amount of what they’re saying and vise versa. I tried to learn Spanish but seeing visual signs was much easier for me to memorize. If I could chose others to learn I’d like to understand French and Spanish as well.

      Ah, I know a bit of sign language too, but I can't really communicate without using the alphabet! I can say "Bitch, please!", though! Hahaha!

      • I cheat and finger spell if I forgot or didn’t learn a certian word. But that’s pretty good haha at least you know what to say if you don’t want to talk.

          Now that I think of it, the first thing I ever learned in ASL was how to sing Sunshine on My Shoulders. By far my most useless talent hahahahaha!

    Only English but I can read and write in Anglo Saxon runes. I can also say "I have a headache" in French.

    Bulgarian (native), English, German, Spanish and I understand some Russian, but I can't speak Russian.

    My English is the best tho... I've had Americans tell me I sound American. I've also had British tell me I sound British... Guess that's what movies, games and Top Gear do to you XD
    My goal is to have the perfect Jeremy Clarkson accent XD

    English and a little bit of an Arabic dialect that my husband's family speaks.

    I took Japanese in University and can read Kana and a few dozen Kanji, but it's been 10 years and there's no way I could hold a conversation lol. I also know about 100 or so words in Spanish from growing up in a mostly Latino area, but can't form a sentence. I can understand maybe 60% of what people are saying if they're speaking slowly.

    I speak english, french and creol. I speak creol here because that's our mother tongue and I'm pretty fluent in french. Speaking english asks some effort.

    English, German, a bit Spanish, which I'm still learning, also very few words (no complete and more complex phrases) in Japanese and Swedish.

    I pretty much only speak English. I have studied German, and Spanish, but I would say I don't have much proficiency in either.

    English and Portuguese equally. Then, in order of how fluent I am, French, Italian and Spanish. I barely get by in German and know a couple of sentences in Polish, Russian and Japanese. And just one in Afrikaans.

        Not really, I think. Apart from English and Portuguese (I was brought up between the US and Brazil during childhood) I just know those other languages enough to communicate in the countries where they are spoken!

        • I guess if you put it that way. I was only brought up around English. Still a lot to understand even if you arn’t very fluent in them, to me at least.

            Yes, it is a lot!!! I try hard (I love languages and studying them), but the truth is that I can only really understand those other languages when I'm speaking to people who are willing to slow down a bit to actually communicate with me. :)

            • I’d love to study them more if only I could pay attention more and remember better. It was always so difficult for me but I keep trying to learn something beyond english. Probably the reason I can get asl down is because it’s pretty much english without some wording, and of course seeing and doing the movement rather than repeating a word and trying to remember it. I always have to tell deaf people “again slow” they’re so fast it’s like they assume I’m also deaf.

              I love talking to deaf people in this other language but it sucks when I don’t know enough to understand a lot I’ll have to resign what they did and say “means what” every other word pretty much, feel like such a burden with it. But it is a nice experience I was happy to learn what it was like. I’d take more classes on it if I could.
