Personally I speak English, Spanish, and decent Latin. However my Spanish writing skills are becoming a bit dull. How about you?

I have studied Spanish for two years in addition to Latin, and of course my native English. I'm the opposite of you, Interficio; my vocabulary is deficient and my oral skills terrible, but my written ability is actually quite good. I can conjugate just about any verb in any tense at will, for example.

I'm studying German right now and can speak a decent amount, but I can write better than I can speak it.....
I speak English, obviously, and of course am studying Latin but do not really no much of the language yet.

I speak Russian (as a native language), Danish (as I have been living in Denmark for the last 10 years), French and English. I would like to improve my Latin skills (and that's exactly what I am doing now) :)

I speak English and very basic Spanish, and am in the process of attaining a college degree with a minor in Latin language.

My native language is Serbian, and, because of the wars, I could say I know more languages than all of you, he he he, Bosnian, Croatian, and the language of Montenegro :D
I also know English, now, how good, you can tell me, I've studied French in high school as well, and I can tell I know Spanish pretty well, just to speak, because I've grown up watching those stupid Spanish soap-operas which that evil Miloshevic blessed as a high art

My native tongue is Dutch, my English is pretty fluid, my German is more than enough to come around (I've lived a few meters from the German border for 20 years) and my French is pretty ok. French writing however is sub par.

I speak Portuguese from childhood;
English, since age 20 (started studying at age of 10).

A very rusty "intermediate" French (which I don't mean to keep) :wondering:

I don't speak (decent) Latin yet :doh: , but I'm already in Millner's course :-$

In the line there come
Italian, Irish (Gaelic), Czech and (one of the) Chinese(s).

I make my efforts in music as well ... :shifty2:

Impossible to learn women's language :brickwall: I thank my god for that: I'm man. 'Need a translator :roll:

Do you know that Czech colloquial language differs a lot from the literary one? Is it relevant for you which Slavic language to take up? Perhaps Polish? On the other hand, Czech has only a few palatalized consonants that may trouble you.

Sorry, Quasus ...

(.. I have a romantic dream of spending some time in Prague. Actually, that Republic atracts me geographically. And it's near Italy.)

I didn't happen to have great contact with any Slavic language, and I'm completely fresh in it. In fact, I miss one. (I elected Czech for the reasons mentioned ...)

I don't know for sure which will come first, Irish or Czech .. I think I need Czech better.

Later on (after Chinese :shock: ) I might try Russian, because of the alphabet :wondering:

& I make no plans of learning German, odd, isn't it?
