no endlish is not my 1st language
My first language is english literature because i have interest in it . But i have my mother tongue as my first subject . Ok guys lets see what comes next
No, my native language is Spanish.
English is my first language, but I also speak fragmented French, German, and Latin, and I'm fluent in Nadsat.
English, though Hungarian was the language I learned as an infant and now Swedish in old age. But both Swedish and Hungarian have faded as we speak English at home.
No, my first language is German.
They say that the first language you learn as an infant is the one you will return to in old age. As an infant everyone around me spoke Hungarian, so I naturally picked it all up. I hadn't realised how this had happened, but it did. Even today I sometimes sing old Hungarian songs that I learned in my teens.
Spanish is my first language. I get by in French too and I understand a little bit of Euskera, the language spoken in the Basque Country.
I think that Scots can be considered a language in its own right. I studied that a dialect is just a language spoken in a specific place. I think it sounds great.
English is the only language I am fluent in although I did have about 6 years of French, so I can sort of read it. I also know a lot of Latin prayers.
English is my mother tongue, and Swahili was my survival in the market place tongue in the 1950s through 60s. Can greet in several other African languages and cuss a little unfortunately. Danish is my choice of pastry only.
French (France) is my first language in this present life of mine ^^
yes, English is my first language, through not too good at it, I like to mess around with German a bit.
German is my first language.
Romanian here.
I started studying French in school first, before English. So I guess French should be my second language (though I really don't know it very well. Or well. Or at all!)
^^"
English is my second language, my first one is Portuguese.
My first language is Spanish. I teach and translate to/from English, French and Portuguese.
I am the only one on this forum who speaks Hungarian? Well I am quite old - born in 1942. But all my relatives could speak Hungarian, though they are all long dead. It used to be a major European language in the Austrian Empire, so sad that it has disappeared. My mother and Aunt did a lot of baking during my childhood, selling cakes to the large minority of Austro-Hungarians who lived in London.

Hi DW,
I´m glad to see you back. It has become difficult for me to enter Litnet, because of recurrent technical issues.
I don´t speak Hungarian myself, but I remember a Hungarian bakery near by.
No doubt they sell strudel. :)
It is located in Hampstead, just looked it up.
They did sell strudell in the bakery here in São Paulo. Unfortunatelly it doesn´t exist any more.
French is my native language
yes,but i can also speak another language
Yes. But I worked for Brazilian banks for quite a while and speak some Portuguese.
Oh!When was that? In what place from Brazil?
Mostly belo horizonte, but also minas gerais, sp, and rio. that would have been circa 2000's
Minas Gerais is a beautiful state but specially suffering under Corona now.
You probably enjoyed the Rio beaches too.
