If dialects count, I also speak about 8 Arabic dialects, and a language called Berber: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berber_languages

I guess we learned an important lesson from Banora: Don't ever take from granted the fact that foreigners can't understand what you're saying

Dialects should definitely count, as long as they differ substantially from one another.

Actually, this is something I'd like to understand: Speaking Moroccan Arabic would I be able to talk to an Egyptian without any knowledge whatsoever of Classical Arabic? How about the other way around? Are the "dialects" just like the different variants of English, or are they more like French, Italian, and Portuguese?

Man, I just had the most fucked up experience. I had coffee with someone who didn't understand me and vice versa, yet we understood each other in some caveman sort of way. She's hot too, I must find a way to make it happen. My guess is cue cards or ear piece.

Originally posted by Banora Cheers! I wish I had kept the voice recordings from the 'what is your accent' thread. :/ Haha, cheers! Hah, actually I think most of it sounds incredibly close to English! For example: Vil du komme til klassen i morgen? Online recording software >> Hvor kommer du fra? Record and upload voice >> Kan du hjælpe mig? Audio recording software >> Danmark er et lille land Record audio or upload mp3 >> You can sound that out and figure out what is being said. When you hear it, it sounds very close to English!

Well those few examples look quite similar to other languages...to me they actually look like as if a very drunk german tried to write something in english. Something clearly different but similar enough to other stuff you know that you could get the gist of it.
