I know Romanian :lol: and I'm pretty fluent in both English and German. Also, from soap operas, I understand perfectly Spanish and also can speak quite good. (although most of the things I could tell very fast are something like: Me dices que la gemela nos ha enganado a todos?? - I don't think it's well written, but hey, just spoken Spanish :lol: )

I would like to learn Russian and Chinese/Japanese. I also know a bit of Latin, although I've got to say is the hardest language I've dealt with. :o :o

You should change the thread's title in "What languages would you like to learn" as there's already a thread for the ones you know.

English, Ghetto talk, Jamaican Patois, and other forms of broken English.

I am certified trilingual and you will all deal.

I feel so inferior. The only language I know is English :(

I took French in high school for 3 years, but I haven't studied it since 2004, so I've forgotten everything I learnt.

I really want to relearn French, and I also want to learn Japanese.

My Dad and stepmum speak Spanish, and they're always wanting to teach me it, so maybe I should let them :lol:

native tongue: German
fluent in: English

I had French in school for 5 years and after school i studied it at university for 2 years. So I'd say I can express myself in French but I'm not yet a fluent speaker. I understand everything though, I could watch all tv series and movies in French. :lol:

I also learned latin in school for 1 year.. I had to take another course at university, because I was studying history.. so i'm a certified basic-level speaker of latin as well.

I know English + Bogan. :lol:

Would like to re-learn Japanese + learn Spanish & French. Can pick up a few words in each (more so in Japanese since I did it in high school and can still write/read/speak a bit of it, just need to regain the level of fluency I had and expand upon it), but would dearly love to become fluent in all of them.

Don't you find it quite hard? I think I lost 3 or 4 nights entirely learning and memorising grammar.

And German is absolutely terryfing for me. Ich mag ihr/ihm???? :D , nicht, weil es sehr schwer ist.

Both versions are wrong :lol:

You'd have to say "Ich mag sie nicht" (in case you are referring to the language)

Believe me, the German language is very easy compared to Hungarian.

I'm really glad I'm fluent in both languages :)
