What languages do you know? What language(s) would you like to know? Why?

[kitty]

i love languages!
Besides English i speak read and write Italian.
Even though i had 12 years of French class, my French is quite limited. As i meet people who speak different languages i always ask them to teach me a few words. i know how to say "chicken" in Polish, Armenian, Portuguese, Russian, Tamil, Romanian, Maltese, Spanish, Greek, German and i think i am forgetting some. i thought chicken was a good word to learn so that if i traveled to any of these countries i would not be wondering what i am eating i could always point and ask..... Chicken?

I only know english, but I would love to know German, Russian, and French. French I will probably end up learning.

I've been taught 6 years of French. 2 years in primary school and 4 years in secondary school. I got bored after the first year so I don't really know much French. It would have been interesting if I had learned German though.

[xerxes]

I can speak German quite qwll, but not fluently. I'd like to learn spanish if I have time.

[Riyko]

I know English and American Sign Language. I know enough japanese to get by in japan for a week or 2 and a few words in german.

[kaetz]

i speak english, russian and chinese... my french and german are rather limited. I don't feel like improving my french but i'd love to speak fluent german! i've already caught up some swiss german! It's sooooo kule but now i sometimes confuse it with normal german hehe

[-Mario-]

I speak great french, good english, a some german.

Chinese?

Which dialect do you speak, Mandarin, Hakka, Cantonese, Fokien.........etc?

[kaetz]

Mandarin so far... but i'd like to learn Cantonese, working on it I'll definitely do it if i go work there... to HK or Guandong

[ShepherdsDog]

the four tones of mandarin are bothersome enough. I think Cantonese has eight.

[Snorkmaiden]

Finnish, Swedish (thanks to this a good understanding of Norwegian and Danish), English, German (studied it for about 8 years but always hated it, so my German isn't the best...), Japanese (although I've forgotten some of it by now ..and I had one class of French in high school..

I'd love to speak Spanish or Italian...sounds so nice..

[kaetz]

cantonese has six tones, vientamese has eight i think...
