Re: Languages!
There are a lot of repeated languages. It's not a bad thing, but it really shows the dominating languages.
1. Chinese (Mandarin; I'm re-learning it though T_T) <--native
2. English (Queen's English) <--primary
3. French (France)
Anyone know Korean?

Re: Languages!

1. English (Native)

3. Japanese (My friend has been teaching me, but I only know a few phrases)
4. Spanish (My mother made me take classes on this, but I know the very basics)

Re: Languages!
1. English (better than almost all people I meet); I gather it's with a mild Australian accent.
2. Python -- yeah, I had to put this here for comparison purposes. I'm getting towards mastering it. I've spent a lot of effort on learning various programming languages (I should also mention C),
which was probably what led me to learn
3. Lojban, the only fully computer-parseable spoken language I know of. Excellent foundations, need more vocabulary (I would probably sound like a 10year old to a native speaker.)
4. Other miscellanea (bagful of Japanese and Esperanto, couple handfuls of Latin, a bit each of Chinese, Greek, Italian, French, Spanish, German)

Re: Languages!
^LOL at #6!
1. Chinese - Mandarin & Cantonese (I used to mix the two up so much when I was a kid).
2. English (Learned this later than most because my parents are really adamant about not speaking English at home, rargh).
3. French (Theoretically, I should be really good at this because I learned it early on, but no).
4. Latin (Because this is such a useful language to learn, amirite).
5. German (After two years, I've become proficient in phrases such as "ich habe meine Hausaufgaben vergessen").
I really want to learn Korean, though; the sounds of the language are really pretty. ;D

Re: Languages!
Seeing quite a few asians here in the forums, that's nice for a change.
1. English (What can you expect from a BBC?)
2. Chinese - Cantonese (I understand hearing best, speaking second, writing last. Focused on my main studies as a child.)
3. French (Studies.)
4. German (Studies.)
5. Latin (And even more studies.)
6. Chinese -Mandarin (Tried learning another form of Chinese again, didn't turn out well due to my other studies, again.)
7. Japanese (Started learning it by myself and then some at uni, but I really need to practice it. Same could be said of my Cantonese).
If only I had people I could practise my Chinese/Japanese with...

1. English, British (Native Language)
2. English, American (Better at it and even prefer it)
3. Japanese (Self-learning, may even beat my ability at English)

Other than that, I know random words in French, German, Italian, Chinese, Arabic, Latin and Hebrew.
