I speak English, Spanish and some French. I took French so long ago that I have forgotten a lot of it.

vainchick5 · 07-26-2005, 08:35 PM

Brutus'mama · 07-27-2005, 04:49 AM

I of course speak english, and hillbilly(I am from kentucky) lol and I am almost fluent in spanish, seeing as how I have been married for almost 5 years to a native spanish speaker he is from Ecuador, we met while we were at Purdue for college(he also speaks english!). I haved lived here in South Florida for 2 years now so spanish is a must on a daily basis so slowly but surely it is becoming easier!!!

English, obviously... And I speak enough French that the people in Paris didn't hate me when I was there in February

I speak french (I'm french...not from France, but from New Brunswick Canada

and of course I also speak english and I'm also at a level three Spanish. Canada is bilingual country(english and french). Oh, and I also speak "Chiac", he he, I don't expect you to understand that word. It's more Acadian, we mix french and english together. For example : As-tu parker le car dans la driveway? Meaning : Did you park the car in the driveway? We use english verbs, but end them in "er" to make it into a french word. Ahhhh, don't ask. That's why alot of people who know very little french can still understand me when I talk because of all the english words that come out

But of course when I went to France, I couldn't talk like that cuz they wouldn't have understood me. We took Spanish lessons before my husband and I went for our honeymoon in Spain. We managed pretty well because spanish is somewhat close to french.

I'm Cambodian-American (Cambodian parents but born and raised here in USA)
I speak English and Khmer. Unfortuately I can't read or write in my native language but I can communicate well with adults which is pretty good for an 'American' as I'm called by 'old' folk. I frequented Montreal, Canada most of my life so I know a few words of french and the whole Alphabet which is very easy and sililar to the english alphabet but too bad I flunked french in high school. I can swear in Spanish, Veitnamese, Laos and Italian. You guys must think swear like a pirate but I seldom use the curses, they're just a few words I've picked up throughout my life.

JCarlson2004 · 07-27-2005, 07:57 AM

kewtee · 07-27-2005, 08:25 AM

Danish (of course), english (school), spanish (learned in Mexico and Guatemala in 1990), german (school), swedish, norweigan - the last 2 because we have so many turists from Norway and Sweden and we have TV channels in those languages too.
Once I started studying russian, but then I met a man...and you all know what that does to you...hehe....

Oh yes - and I can say Wo oi ni - I don't know if the spelling is right, but it should be chinese for "I love you"

I can say "assiwakitkissawitammasuk", that is greenlandish, but far to naughty to translate in a public forum.
