English and French. I wish I could speak more. I tried to learn both Italian and German when I was school, but didn't really get anywhere. I'd love to be able to speak German.

I was a Russian linguist in the Air Force. I've lost a lot of it since I don't use it every day anymore. But I used to be moderately fluent.

I took two years of high school Spanish and another two in college.

I wish I could keep up on those languages. I've thought about taking refresher courses. I think it's good to know languages.

Cantankerous 08.04.2006 09:59 AM

the only one i can speak well is spanish.

touch me i'm sick 08.04.2006 10:38 AM

ahh diesel long time no see

hah no i'm not
i speak portuguese cause i'm frombrazil and it was my first language so that's what we speak at home. and then french is cause i go to an international school where you have a second language since you're like 4.

i took japanese for three years at school, and then i can understand all of spanish and carry on a bad conversation cause it's similar to portuguese.

english and some french. i can read most things.. but i can't sustain a very intelligent conversation.. or one at all, for that matter

touch me i'm sick 08.04.2006 12:50 PM

when i went to canada most people would begin conversations in french

k-krack 08.04.2006 12:55 PM

really? did you go to quebec then? thats the only province where french is 5 the first language.

touch me i'm sick 08.04.2006 12:56 PM

in quebec and also montreal. now that i think about it, they didn't in toronto

k-krack 08.04.2006 01:00 PM

ahh. montreal was so fun, and it was so much better (in general) than toronto. for one thing, you could go five steps without smelling dseomthing terrible coming up from the sewers or just. stinky all around place. and people are much friendlier, i thought. it was such a cleaner environment.

touch me i'm sick 08.04.2006 01:01 PM

yeah montreal's fun at night
