compl3x Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I speak one. (can you guess which one?) When I have been drinking, ~half of one. Share with us you multilingual skills. (Note: a programming language or math doesn't count. We are talking about spoken/written langues, please.) The Evil Overlord 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplezz Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I can speak Castillian Spanish (Castellano) moderately. Enough to get by in a basic conversation. I can read and write in Classical Latin and Homeric Greek, although I'm much more proficient in Latin. Composition is difficult in both though. And I certainly can't hold a conversation in either.

+LogicalApex MVC Posted February 28, 2014 MVC Share Posted February 28, 2014 Why don't programming languages count? Since we speak so much with text being the only medium (such as here) I think programming languages are valid... They are read by other humans just as much as they are by compilers... But since I'm barred from adding programming languages... I barely speak English as many here can often see in my posts. English is also my only language...

The Evil Overlord Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I can speak 3, English Panjabi and Hindi I've been thinking about learning some Eastern European languages, but haven't decided which to start with, so not to offend anyone I'll name the languages by country as I'm not 100% sure of the name of the languages.. the language spoken in Czech Republic, and I would like to learn French and German, Victor Rambo and Gerowen 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerowen Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I speak English primarily and a little bit of Spanish. I couldn't carry on a drawn out conversation, but I can get directions, order food in a restaurant, and if I see something written I can usually figure out what it means. I'm just not fluent. I've been interested in learning to speak Cherokee for a while since my great grandfather was a full blooded Cherokee indian, but he is long dead and none of my relatives speak it since we're not associated with the reservations. I just think it's kind of nifty and if I could learn a little bit it would pay homage to that part of my heritage. Have also been curious about Gaelic for the same reason as Cherokee. On my dad's side I have some Scottish blood in there, and would like to learn a little bit of Scottish Gaelic. At the end of the day, the only language I can fluently speak and communicate in is English. The Evil Overlord 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiGhtPiSH Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I'm a native Bulgarian speaker, but I speak English, German and Serbian. right now I'm studying Spanish.

Stokkolm Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Just English, though I understand some basic Spanish from high school Spanish class. My grandparents are/were native Swedish speakers, but they never passed the language on to their children. My family always called us tokig (tookee) as kids which means crazy or wild I guess. That's about the extent of it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sszecret Veteran Posted February 28, 2014 Veteran Share Posted February 28, 2014 Native Romanian speaker. Obviously English, and a little bit of French (still working on that).

I'm not anti programming or math as languages. Arguably, more logic exists in those forms of expression than spoken languages, I just wanted to know what spoken languages people speak. :) 3 Telugu(Native Tongue), Hindi , English. Enlighten us, what is Telugu? (I know I could Google it, but that doesn't encourage much discussion, does it?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riahc3 Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Hello, Why don't programming languages count?Because it is not a language where you can have a communication in, put signs, etc. Its not a real language. At best, it would be a variant of English... I speak two. Plan to one day learn Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
