I know, I saw it. I just thought mine was a little different. That’s cool though. I did do a search. I kind of thought that because it’s not something extremely over done (for instance, my election question) it would be alright. At least it didn’t pertain to iPods. Eh?

bkburbo。 我很高兴你会说中文。我学中文学了三年。 可是我没有练习所以我忘记了太多了。
I’m very basically conversational in Chinese, and I can understand quite a bit in Spanish. French, however is beyond me at the moment. I speak to my friends in Chinese sometimes. Part of me hopes they’ll pick it up eventually. haha.

@Allure1887 I’m similar, convo Chinese, basic French, and my bestest English. I very much regret not following up with my French after high school (I was in an ‘intensive’ French program).

I’m fluent (if not always perfect) in English.

When it comes to French, I can speak it well enough that fluent speakers will get my message, and I understand it when it’s spoken to me to the point where I can watch French films without subtitles and get the gist of it. I can generally figure out written French, too. Just don’t ask me to write it. That’s a disaster.

I know a few random words and phrases in German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Japanese, Tagalog, Irish, Welsh, Romanian (which I’d like to learn fluently), Hebrew, Yiddish, and Lenape. And possibly a couple of others that I’m forgetting. These are all just really random bits of knowledge, though. I don’t really know the grammar rules or anything. What I’ve picked up comes mostly from being around people who were born in these places and speak the languages fluently in their homes or on their blogs. Irish, Welsh and Lenape are the exceptions. The Irish and Welsh I know is all in the form of untranslated proverbs, and Lenape is an extinct language, so I had to go out of my way to learn what I know of that.

English and French. I’m fluent in both…lived in Belgium for a year and actually lost my accent while living there. I’m sure it’s back by now though. ;)
