Hi Guys,

Apart from your first language, which other languages u can understand and speak

My first language is Urdu and I'm expert in it

Other languages which i know are

1) English (Can read, write, speak, understand)
2) Punjabi (A native language of Pakistan and India, can speak and understand)
3) Sindhi (A native language of Pakistan and India, can read only coz i studied it in school until matric)
4) Hindi (It is almost same as Urdu apart from few words. I can speak and understand Hindi but can't read or write coz it is totally different when it comes to writing.)

P.S. I know a few words and phrases of Portuguese too which a friend of mine told me

That's alot.

I know Tagalog/Filipino and a bit of ilocano.

Dutch offcourse

- English (haven't noticed yet? )
- French (un peu, ce n'est pas tres bien)
- German

Hablo un poco Espa?ol. I read it better than I speak it though. I know lots of curse words too

Ich kann ein Deutsch sprechen. Although again better at reading it, the verbs always confuse me in German.

Its been many years but I was pretty proficient in Latin when I was in high school- LOL not sure how much use that would be even if I did remember it all still.

English
And my native lithuanian

Estonian - first language

And others that I've learned in school:

English - about 12 years?
Russian - 6 years (still doesn't speak it very well, if all )
German - 3 years
Finnish - 1 year plus have watched Finnish TV my whole life.

I know a bit of Spanish but I only took it for 1 year in high school - our teacher was fired the same year she got hired... so yeah, that kinda gives you an impression of how bad a teacher she was

Finnish (native)
English - Fluent pretty much
Swedish - should be fluent but am not I can understand everything but answering back stinks
German - I manage with it after studying it for 4 years
Italien - Some
Spanish - Few bits here and there

Also I used to be fluent in dutch while growing up, have forgotten a whole lot but when I hear or read it I can still somehow get the "picture", it's actually really weird, I suppoce the language is stuck deep in my brains and I'd just need to dig it out again

On a scale of 1-10 where 10 is fluent and 1 is poor (read) (write) (speak)

1: Portuguese 10-10-10
2: English 10-10-10
3: French 4-3-6
4: Italian 5-3-6
5: Spanish 6-4-7

Wow , You guys know a lots of languages

One of my cousin is learning french and once i asked her to speak in french... Boy it was so difficult. You have to make extra use of throat to speak french.

Btw, has anyone invented his/her own language to speak with family or friends. Once me and my cousins tried to do it but all in vain

Well kind of, when we were younger we used to speak i-language quite a lot, that's when you change all the vowels into i's That sounds so funny and you can still understand what the other person was saying lol

English first language

Also speak a little arabic round home

Learnt german for 7 years back in school but cant remember anything now

French is a nice language, I used to hate it when I got it at school but for some reason I want to learn it better now

semi-fluent in french and spanish. used to really be fluent, but now that it's been a few years since i studied either of them, it takes me a day or two to get back into it. dutch, i can understand a bit, and know enough to order my favorite foods. japanese i know enough to introduce myself, and ask directions, and (my favorite) tell people i'm crazy and i'm going home. know a bit of hawaiian from when i lived there.

I'm the same way with dutch. Grew up listening to my grandparents speak it, and when I was 10 I spent the summer there, and within a month or so was pretty fluent. Now I can understand what someone is saying usually, but have a hard time coming up with the words to respond.

i think you might be a little bit baka!!!!!
