English, Danish.

I'm learning German in the next two years, and been learning Jap on and off.

English, German, a bit out of practice with French but if I have people talking to me then it's fluently..., I can understand most of Norwegian, but talking is difficult, I can translate Latin and some basic knowledge of Spanish and Italian

If you can understand written Norwegian you can probably add Danish and Swedish as well

Morgia · « **Reply #23 on:** July 31, 2009, 10:58:12 AM »

sure thing... but the swedes and danes in here didn't mention the other scandinavian languages either, so I just let them fall under the table ^^

Takeshi · « **Reply #24 on:** July 31, 2009, 11:15:35 AM »

There's a several words I can understand when people are speaking Norwegian and Swedish, but only a few. I can't understand written at ALL. I've always said that Swedish and Norwegian was Danish with spelling errors.. xD

Unlike Path, I do want to go there.

In Sweden we say that Danish is Swedish, but with a fat cock in your mouth. (Funny thing is if that you take a cucumber and shuv it in your mouth, then try to speak, it will actually sound like Danish.)

Wrong, Danish is like Norwegian spoken by a seal with pneumonia.

Sosseres · « **Reply #29 on:** July 31, 2009, 05:59:25 PM »

Swedish
English
Japanese, can watch raw anime/TV series in Japanese, can't read, write or speak it.
Spanish, like 3%, forgotten most of it.

I say it counts.
I can speak English fluently (obviously) and I know enough Japanese to butcher it. I know a little German, because I think it's just a cool sounding language. German is a language I can get my teeth into...

I don't know why, but this thread made me think of this quote:

Taz 'Rat' Finch: How many languages do you speak?

Dr. Conrad Zimsky: Five, actually.

Taz 'Rat' Finch: I speak one. One Zero One Zero Zero. With that I could steal your money, your secrets, your sexual fantasies, your whole life. In any country, any time, any place I want. We multitask like you breathe. I couldn't think as slow as you if I tried.

Counts as English, unless you can speak all the jargons in all known human languages.

I dunno what Val speak is lol

bfontaine · « **Reply #38 on:** August 02, 2009, 01:48:33 PM »

French and English.

I've learn a bit of Latin in high school to help us better understand French...

I'm more and more thinking of learning Japanese, getting slowly tired of reading subs...

I hope so. Otherwise, this list is fairly short.

English. That's it. I can still remember some of my Latin and Ancient Greek, and I have a few words in French, Irish, German, Japanese, Greek, Setswana, probably a few words in Xhosa, and maybe two or so words in Afrikaans and Russian. But I'm only fully fluent in English.

Computer languages: 1337, some hacker jargon, Java, C, C++, m68k, some Python, some C#, bash-script, and ASCII (with a charmap) in both binary and hex.
