Spanish was my first language and then I learned English in school.
Hoping to learn either German or Dutch soon though :) |

spanish and english, some french here and there but not a fair much really. I would be interested on learning mandarin or Japanese in the not-so-distant future. I wouldn't nod off if an interesting job offer abroad came about ..
en espanol, se como hablarlo y escribirlo pero la verdad es que no recuerdo las reglas de gramatica muy bien, y tambien los teclados no son muy adaptables al castellano en mi opinion.
:D |

So it's easy to re-learn a language? I hope so, because my biggest nightmare is something like: "I see you've had French for 5 years in school. Good, we'll send you over there for 6 months." :nervous: |
learning french and working in france where you have to speak it, is something different. because you can't use you school books and because there are alot of words you don't know, but you prolly need to know :D and the french speak so quickly you have to translate it directly into your own language. and there are also different dialect in the different regions of france/belgium/where ever they speak french. but you'll get the hang of it after a while
my languages:
dutch
english
french
few words german/polish/arabic |

I'm confused about the "choy hi" part but you got the rest very close.

I don't get the "choy" part either, but the "hi" is referring to the vagina probably.
Also elFreak, most people start to learn calling names first when they learn a language, so it will take a bit more before it's convincing that you can actually speak mandarin/korean :p |

| I enjoy the fact that eastern languages and dialects, both terms used with volatility, are kept simple; and sentences tend to be smaller in nature. Castellano and other disciplines pertaining to the Indo European family of languages, require an average of one or two more sentences. |
