Your native language

[Higlac]

I have noticed that a lot of the forum users are from many European countries. I am just wondering what languages everyone here speaks.

I myself speak English and a little French.

 

[lePobz]

I'm English.

I speak english, french, spanish and a little german.

 

[Raziaar]

My native language went extinct recently.

English, my now current language, made me forget.

I've been trying to learn Russian, but I haven't had enough time lately and little support to fall back on to encourage me to continue.

 

[Stigmata]

My native language is English. I speak no other languages. I'm far too lazy to learn. But it seems that everyone knows English to some degree anyway, so hopefully my lack of languages won't matter in a couple decades.

 

[Ennui]

English, but I can mostly understand written Spanish, I know a bit of German, and I'm slowly learning Russian.

 

[Gunner]

english, french, farsi, some spanish and some arabic.

 

[Raziaar]

English, but I can mostly understand written Spanish, I know a bit of German, and I'm slowly learning Russian.

Dude, you're learning Russian? I didn't know you were interested in it. When did this happen?

We should be study partners

 

[Dalamari]

English, I took about a decade of Spanish since I started school but the two years off I took at the end of high school made me forget about it

 

[French Ninja]

English.
I understand Spanish and some German. I know a couple of random words in Latin and I'm trying to learn more(to, Winter, war, after, tavern, soldier...mostly words from Carmina Burana )

Haha yeah I'm taking introductory Russian this semester. It's much, much more difficult than I had expected.

 

[xcellerate]

well I speak english, but my girlfriend speaks english, japanese, french, and is learning chinese...so can she be cool instead of me?

 

[ktimekiller]

i speak english and korean

 

[Planetary]

Serbian, English, French (painfully little), and not much else.

 

[Raziaar]

Man, I wish I had the money to take an actual class. Good luck!

The stuff that I've learned so far, I actually found quite easy to pick up. However, I know concepts such as grammar and construction are going to be VERY complicated for me, especially since most languages seem to have a sort of backwards way of saying things than what I'm used to in english.

The alphabet at least was easy for me to pick up on. :bounce:

 

[CyberPitz]

I speak English, broken English, bad English, and I can do the ABC's and count to 12 in French.

 

[Atomic_Piggy]

I'm English.

I speak english, french, spanish and a little german.

Same here. I also speak american english.

 

[Jintor]

Chinese/Malaysian, I understand and speak rather crappily Mandarin and Cantonese, and am ultra-fluent in Australian English. (If it's seperate or whatever, I dunno).

 

[Azner]

Im chinese

I speak english as well as you guys do. But my mandarin sucks bawlz.

 

[Majestic XII]

My native language is Swedish so I get the bonus of understanding danish and norwegian (and they have the bonus of understanding swedish )

I also studied spanish for like 4 years in school, but can't remember anything.

And of course english, otherwise I wouldnt be here.

 

[15357]

I'm Korean, fluent in Korean and English (estimated to be better than 98% of Koreans according to english proficiency tests), able to give simple instructions and make minor conversations in Japanese, able to read a bit of Chinese (although the grammar system is WTF?).


I rekon that most of my english skills come from gaming and books. I learned shakspearean englsih through the Theif series, and my general vocabulary range has improved dramatically thanks to Half Life 2, Starcraft, and various other games that I can't remember.


Although I'm sure that it's because of my love for reading that has contributed to my english the most.

 

[The Brick]

Dutch and English. I understand most german, un petit french, and I still remember some basic Latin.

 

[TwwIX]

Bosnian or Serbo Croatian if you will.
I used to speak German fluently but now it's a bit rusty.
Last but not least,English of course.

 

[Cormeh]

I learned shakspearean englsih.

Sorry numbers, I know it's just a wee typo, but I fkn lol'd.

English is my native language, but I'd like to learn Gaelic (there's a lot of Gaelic programming here).

I do know basic French mind you. Stemming from standard grade days. Part of my ignorance of other languages is that I never bothered learning, and I take it for granted that most countries I visit speak English as their second language.

 

[evil^milk]

Spanish, fluently.

English, a bit less fluent.

I want to learn French, is it hard?

 

[99.vikram]

I learned shakspearean englsih through the Theif series

Oh Numbers, you clever dog, you!!

I speak English and Hindi, and also know Sanskrit and Malayalam, both of which will hopefully become extinct in the next few decades. :x

Unified world language FTW.

 

[Exploder]

My native language is Norwegian but I love English... so I'm all covered. Swedish and Danish is doable as well.

I've tried German and French as well but they both suck... sorry about that my dear French and Germans

 

[The Monkey]

My native language is Swedish (and with that comes, as Majestic XII said, the ability to understand Danish and Norweigan and be understood by them).

I speak English fairly well.

My German has degraded a lot the last two years, and I think it will continue that way. I still understand most of it, but I doubt I could make myself understood in Germany.

When my histroy teacher was teaching about sanskrit and Javi. She accdentally said javascript. we lold. Sorry for derail. Ill probably get an infrank as always when i talk out of subject while quoting you D:

 

[Absinthe]

English.

I also make up little languages like adding "ong" at the end of every vowel in a word and become very proficient at it just so I can say I'm bilingual.

 

[Narvi]

Dhivehi.

Which I can read and write at a seventh grade level.

 

[JNightshade]

English, and fluent in Female.

 

[No Limit]

Native language is Polish but I speak English much better since I haven't used Polish in such a long time other than speaking to family. Since I live in New Mexico I picked up a few spanish words here and there but I am not fluent in it.

 

[Nemesis6]

Native languge - Danish. Second language: English, which I'm embarrassingly enough more articulate and generally better at. I'm learning Russian, and I have a bit of that ****wit language they speak south of the border -- German -- hanging in the back of my mind.

Been looking a little bit at the Turkic languages of the former Soviet republics a little bit, but nothing serious.

 

[Tyguy]

English, Spanish, French, Jive

 

[Acepilotf14]

English, but fluent in nerd.

 

[kattmat]

Swedish is my native language and English my second. Know a lot of German too, but haven't been practicing for ages.

 

[Atomic_Piggy]

Spanish, fluently.

English, a bit less fluent.

I want to learn French, is it hard?

Its not easy, but its not that much harder than english or spanish (its not like russian or chinese, or japanese or seomthing, its far simpler).

The grammar is weird because it uses cases, not tenses, so it's structured completely differently grammatically speaking than English, French, Spanish, etc.

 

[Gray Fox]

Dutsh and Yugoslav.
Although I speak English about as good as those two languages.
