Multilingualism
 

Can you speak two or more languages or not? If you can, which ones?

im fluent in Cunnilingus

On and off attempts at learning German but I'm a long way away

speak foreign?

you must be joking

I know some German and Irish. I'm learning Portuguese.

i might add that i do, ahem, speak the language of Lurve

:creep:

GCSE B in Spanish and French :dazzler:

I have a degree in German and spent some time in Russia on a language course

I am sorry but we cannot offer you a job at this time but will keep your details on file and may consider you at a later date.

None but think that they should be on the syllabus from primary.

why?

we speak a language that everyone speaks (or wants to) so we could concentrate on other things of more importance

It broadens peoples horizons giving our yoof the chance to look beyond this godforsaken island.

I can read french and some spanish but not speak it

I got an A in my GCSE French.

I clicked Spanish also by accident

I can speak Danish, read Swedish and understand Norwegian. I used to speak quite a lot of Greek when I worked on a Greek cruise ship, but I've forgotten most of it. However as the lifeboat drills were always spoken in Greek first, I've never forgotten the phrases 'All crew to lifeboats' and 'All crew abandon ship'.
I would like to learn Spanish as it's a beautiful sounding language and also latin, because one day I might find myself in the Vatican archives!! Well I can dream can't I?

i speak/read/write fluently in english & turkish & i know enough german to get by :)

English, and like 10 korean words :joker:

Spanish

None just english.

I did German at school but I don't know anything near enough to class as me knowing the language :laugh:

Passable Russian, pigeon Spanish and Allo Allo level French

I'll have you know I have a job at a well known energy company that rhymes with Snottish Shower

I'm of the opinion that we should be taught grammar classes from a young age so that 1) we don't have a nation full of morons who can't spell and 2) that if, when you're a little older (teens, early 20s) you fancy learning a foreign language, it isn't a total wasteland of grammar rules that are totally alien. It would make language learning so much easier and it would mean that kids aren't forced into studying French and/or German (which is clearly based on 1900s logic of what's important in the world) at the age of 12 with little to no understanding of what they're supposed to be learning - most language teaching is basically just repetition exercises so that kids learn how to pass exams, not actually think about the construction of the sentences they're trying to form.

Agreed!
