Yeah, I want to learn Chinese, Dutch and Spanish. Need to know a lot of language if you're going to work with business.

I can speak English and Japanese. Although Japanese is the first language I've spoken, my English has become far more fluent. I can read up to sixth grade level kanji. ^^;

I've learnt French since elementary school, and I'm continuing to learn the language today. I can read and write but my speaking still needs a lot of work.

In the summer I'm taking Italian, but there are a lot of languages that I still want to learn. For example: Korean, German, Latin, and Finnish.

French ( I barely know how to say my name and where I live... Je m'appelle Isaac Vargas et je habbite à Silveira )
Japanese ( I know 9 words, Baka, Ame, Umi, Mizu, Boku, Arigatou, Shiro, Kuro, Ryu )

English, Spanish and Portuguese(my 1st language). I've studied English and Spanish in High School. I'm always studying. Who speak different languages want to learn more and more.

Mandarin Chinese- learning, but I can understand most of it because of random dramas
Cantonese - I speak it at home, so I'm quite fluent
Shanghainese (Chinese dialect spoken in Shanghai) - My mum is Shanghainese and I usually go to Shanghai every year, so I understand it all, but I can't speak it
Japanese - I can understand some phrases, and I'm trying to get my friend to teach me >.>
Korean - I can read it, but I have no idea what it means :D

Wow, this thread puts me to shame...;A;

I speak English fluently, as it's my native language, and I personally rate myself as "intermediate" in Japanese.

I've just started learning French, so I can do the basics. ("Hello/Where is the bus/Do you speak English", ect) and I would love to study Spanish (it's so pretty~~) and thai, because I'm trying to learn bits and pieces of it while I'm here. :3

Vow:) There are really many tallented people here.:) It's really great to know as many languages as possible, so it is really cool when a person knows from four to six languages and even more))
I'm not so talented, but I know English, Spanish.
Also I can understand and read Italian, Ukrainian and Belorussian, though I can't speak them.
The next year I really wanted to start learning Italian. :)

English, of course. I do know a little bit of Japanese, as a result of my earlier attempts at learning the language in an attempt to self-translate various manga that I collected over the years. Also, I've had some exposure to Latin through a middle-school class that gave me some idea what Romance languages such as Spanish and Portugese are saying in writing. And finally, there was also a short French class.

Filipino is my native tongue.

I'm fluent in American English not the British one.

I know very little Japanese (only few expressions because I watched anime when I was a kid)

English and Indonesian. Somehow I feel like English is also my native language since I used it as often as Indonesian, lol~ :D

When I was in senior year in high school, the curriculum of the school changed middle of the school such that it now includes French as one of its minor subjects.

I never took my French class seriously because it was so hard. Plus, we started out so late already.

But I guess, I know a few words/sentences in French. Thanks to that class.

Adding Afrikaans to myself as I've taken an iNet course and refreshed my memory to the point where I once again can speak and write it! High five *clap* Yay!

Fluent only in portuguese and english. Portuguese for I am brazillian, english for I like good-quality fanfiction, and Brazil has none to offer.

I also understand Spanish, but have difficulty in speaking it (clashes too much with portuguese, too many same-sound-different-meaning words for me)

I would say Japanese, but only when I've watched the anime times enough to remember what they are saying :p

Yeah, I guess that goes the same for me too. I was once "enthralled" with Nihongo (from watching anime at that point of my life) that I frequently wrote all the terms in a piece of paper and then memorized the words.

Fortunately, some of them still lingered in my mind. I guess, I can understand the basic sentence structure of Nihongo.

**********My French classes suck. I know some but it was definitely hard. xD
