They should allow it. Answering in other than English is not prohibited in the Posting guidelines.
And as an answer to your question, Spanish, English, Italian, Portuguese, French and Turkish, as long as we are clear that speaking and ‘knowing’ are not the same. I can read all Romance laguages + Turkish out aloud which technically I would have spoken, although only 3 of them would be in my opinion languages that I understand.

I don’t speak mandarin fluently, in fact that sentence might have had a mistake in the location of the words but I’m working on it. I hope more Americans learn a second language.

Fluent in English and Spanish, advanced in Mandarin Chinese.

You said “How many countries can you speak?” You might want to say ”你会说几个语言?”

Faroese is my native language. Guess you could say I picked it up at home :)
I’m crap at written Faroese now though – having lived abroad for the last 13 years.
