What languages can you speak?

[irinmisfit92]

This idea just came out of the blue, and I think it's very interesting to know what language the people in this website can speak.

For me:

Indonesian
English
Mandarin

Although I suck at Mandarin, as ever since I was young, I have been engrossed in the world of English. I'm TRYING to study Italian and Swedish on my own, but I guess it's not working very well XD Coupled with the fact that now I'm working full time as an English literature tutor and I have no life working 6 days a week.

So yeah, tell me what languages you can speak!

-Japanese, I'm an unofficial student and I'm learning fairly quickly, considering
-French, but TERRIBLY. I can recognize a lot of nouns and verbs, and I can usually understand what a sentence is trying to say if I'm reading it, but when it comes to putting that sentence together/responding/being able to understand spoken French, I'm an embarrassment as a Canadian.

:lol: No, you don't live in Quebec, so it's okay, lol! Every time my father would travel with us to Quebec (he was born and grew up there; though English), he used to speak french for us. We never learned. I do regret it. Most Americans are not bi-lingual, but I have a feeling I should learn Spanish.

A wee bit of Arabic and German. I can read Arabic just fine (and Urdu given that they use the same alphabet) but my speaking skills are limited to religious texts and a little bit of colloquial Arabic.
