Who speaks what?

lionstarr · 01-25-2006, 09:54 AM

hello, I would be interested what other languages than english you speak. I, as an example, speak German most of the time. I only learn English at the school ( but I'm not so bad! ).
What languages do you speak?
Hope for answers,
greetings,
lionstarrr

It depends upon what you mean by "speak", I guess.
Like a lot of English-Canadians, I studied French for many years in school, and was once fairly conversant in it.
Much less so now, from years of disuse, but I could probably make myself understood if need be.
Language does seem to be one of those things to which the old saying can be applied: "use it, or lose it".
