I know English. I know, I know... its suprising and all, but c'mon, I really can speak it! Stop looking at me like I'm stupid!

I'm also learning French. Its actually quite better, because my French teacher is probably the nicest teacher I've ever had.

Why didn't you make the poll so people could click multiple choices? Considering you put the '/s' on the end.

Occassionally I use the English language to communicate with others. Ah, but I'm learning French (woo!) and German (eek!) at school. I gave up Latin because I hated it (although I loved it to begin with, so it's not like I went in against the idea of learning it or anything), but could probably recall a few words and grammar points.

Mr Fisher also told us how to count to 10 in, I think it was Chinese. Includes something like 'itchy knee', so if anyone can identify it for me....

Dutch is my own language, but I can speak english too... I also speak a little french, a little german and a bit of spanish too. Used to have greek and latin at school (Aeneas Troianus est), but it got kinda hard, so I quit...

EDIT: Dude, I said dutch is my own language, so that means I am Dutch, as in from Dutchland, as in from Holland, as in The Netherlands... (j/k about the Dutchland thing...)

I'm boring, I can only understand English.

Although I can read two Japanese words ... Final Fantasy and Sephiroth. Oh that's three. And I try to sing along to a lot of Japanese vocals.

Cheers. Not that it matters much, because that's all I can remember from it. Oh well. Anyway, if you need to know, I'm from England, but you could just check the 'where do you come from' topic, or even more ingenious, swivel your eyeballs slightly to the left and read the bit that comes after 'location'.

I'd just like ot point out that "Jewish" is not a language, nor is African, and Pig Latin is stretching the boundaries of what a language is, isn't it? (as is Esporanto....)

But I speak English and some spanish, though I have been foprgetting a lot of the rules in Spanish as i go year anfter year without any schooling.

Though I would love to learn French and German.

With "Native Australian" do you mean Aboriginal? Or just the way Australians talk.

Kangaroo actually means "I don't know" in Aboriginal, as they did not understand what the hec the first Aussie settlers were talking about when they asked "What's that animal called?"
