In how many languages do you know how to say “dolphin”?

Asked by raum (13207) September 2nd, 2019 from iPhone

When I was in high school, I made the mistake of marking English as my second language on a school form. (I learned it concurrently.)

I was called to the office. They sat me down and asked me to point at objects to test my language proficiency.

I was pretty amused because my English is pretty good. But I also found their choice of objects to be pretty interesting.

One of the cards they held up had a picture of a dolphin. Which has become my personal gauge for language fluency.

So…how many languages can you say “dolphin” in? No cheating and googling!
