By the way I'd love to take up some languages. I've considered Spanish, Italian and Japanese. I studied Latin till year 12 at school, so the Italian and Spanish are pretty intuitive for me, and I did Japanese till year 10. Have you got any good language self-study tips to impart?

Here's my tip: don't try learning English from an internet forum, all you get are things like kthnxbye, omgidie, omghi2u and that sort of things.

And I can only speak Spanish properly. Maybe I could try speaking in english, but I put my money on nobody will understand me

French and English and some broken Arabic.

AIRY FEEKON!!!

Arabic, Dutch and english

all good.

can't write or read Arabic though.

English - should know gujrati, and kswahili - but forgotten the bulk of it. Should know french too, considering I took it till grade 10 - but can't remember merde all
Trying to pick up farsi as well - but can't seem to get past learning the cuss words first

Lira - are you learning these languages just on sheer interest, or actually studying languages in school?? Man, that's quite the list!

kokanee

Echo of Silence speaks like 10 languages

I've never understood why English people call it Gaelic. Why can't they call it Irish like us Irish people? (even though I live in Belgium)

I speak: English, Dutch, French and some Irish.

English, about 3 local variations of

Intermediate in German, French

Basic in Spanish

Scottish - awful language but had to learn to understand it due to my ex being from there

codshit, what i speak here usually

English, French, Romanian and of course German

Fluent in English
Fluent in Norwegian which basically means you can speak Swedish and Danish too.
Conversational in French, because I haven't spoken it in a long time, but I took 4 and a half years of it into College.
And can speak very basically in Spanish.

Thanks Portuguese is my native language, I lived 2 years in Italy, I learned English and Spanish at school and I'm taking Japanese in university (I'll graduate in Japanese Language and Literature). As for the rest, well, I like to study languages.

Spasibo Here are some tips that have always helped me:

• Remember "there's no such thing as a difficult language": If several hundred people speak a certain language, so can you. They can't all be geniuses... they could, but that's a remote possibility.
  
• Don't try to score a touchdown if you're playing chess: don't expect all languages to be the same, or behave the same way. In Russian you can have multiple negations in the same sentence, in English you can't. It's just a different logic.
  
• Don't expect to learn it overnight: Some people want to speak a second (or a third, fourth, fifth) language as fluently as their mother language. It can only happen in a bi-lingual environment. Besides, you often don't need to be a walking dictionary to speak a language. Once you master the common words (or the words you'd need the most), use the grammar and keep learning a bit more every day, you'll slowly get it.
  
• We always have something new to learn: A good example is - I had never seen the word "sheer" till kokanee's post, so we're always learning
  

I speak 5

-English
-Arabic
-Bengali
-Hindi (can't read it though)
-Urdu (can't read it though)
