How many languages do you speak?

[TheGoofster]

I am assuming that if you are reading this, that you can speak English?
So then, besides English how many OTHER languages can you speak (in other words, don't count English in your answer)

The only other language I can speak pretty fluently is Spanish. I also know a little Sign language, and studied arabic for a linguistics course in college, but I will have to vote just 1 - Spanish

I can get by in Spanish. And, as you can see from my tag, I speak food in German. I lived in Germany for a year--the only thing I can do is order in a restaurant and ask where the bathroom is. Obviously, the two most important things.

 

[minnieandme]

Only one for me - English. I did learn Spanish in HS, but can't speak it. I can pick up certain words, but that's about it.

 

[brasswillow]

I took Spanish in high school, but the only thing I remember is how to ask where my pants are.

I am nearly fluent in Sign Language.

 

[Fitswimmer]

I only speak English and I would like to learn something else. I'm trying to decide between Chinese and Japanese.

 

[apirateslifeforme]

I'm not fluent, but I speak French and Spanish.

I didn't include them because I can barely speak enough to get by, but I do know some Italian and German as well.

 

[pearlieq]

I can speak French pretty fluently and I'm learning Spanish now. I know enough to get by but would like to become more fluent.

 

[Philadisney]

I wish I was fluent in another language, but I've always had trouble with them. I know bits and pieces of Spanish (learned in high school), Japanese (learned in college), and ASL (learned from my mother, who taught special education for twenty five years)

 

[KristinBelle]

Just english.

 

[punkin]

I voted 2, one I am fluent and the other very proficient.

I can also get by in another 2.

I can speak German pretty fluent and can read most of it too-I even dream in German-I have lots of realtives who still live in Germany and was sent there when I was eleven-that's how I learned the language(emmersion)

I really really want to learn Spanish too!!! Since I work in a Big ER-it would be very helpful!!!

[scrump]

English, Japanese, strong French (but not fluent)

 

[LadyyRedd]

I know French pretty well, but I'm not fluent. I know enough Spanish and some ASL. I also know a little Farsi.

[rhanditresmom]

I'm not fluent, but I do speak some Cantonese Chinese and Mandarin Chinese.

 

[supercarrie]

Besides English, I speak Spanish fairly well. In fact I just finished a couple hours of studying today - am trying to get back into the swing of speaking it regularly.

 

[RickinNYC]

I can speak some Spanish but understand it better when written, but not nearly enough to get by if someone plopped me down in Mexico or Spain. I used to speak more Japanese when we lived there but now I know the basics like, "Where's the bathroom?", "How much is this?," and "What time is it?"

 

[kendall]

Fluent in Spanish and English - can bluff my way through some basic French. Would like to learn Chinese!

 

[Bob Slydell]

You need to vote "2".

Not the way the poll question is worded: "How many other languages (other than English) do you speak?"

 

[MUFFYCAT]

English and Joanne talk.

I have my own language yet some of people on Dis understand it now.

I feel sorry for them.
