Gorag Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I myself only speak English fluently, but am learning Latin and Spanish. Both come really easy for me, and are much more fun to speak than English is. Are you learning or do you know any other languages, and do you learn them rather easily as well?

Klak Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 (edited) Two languages. One is obviously English. The other is Spanish (both fluently). I want to learn a third, but I'm still deciding.

Nescent Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 English is my first language. When I was eight, we started moving around the Americas, to lots of Spanish-speaking countries. Within a few months, I spoke it fluently (first, Costa-Rican class Spanish, then later, Castellano). But I moved back to the US in about the seventh grade, and mostly forgot how to speak it. Then I started high school last year, and took Spanish I for the easy grade, and for a foreign language credit. Now I am in Spanish II. I do not speak it fluently, but I speak it enough to successfully communicate with a Spanish-speaking person, perhaps with a nice accent.

Freddy Mallins Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 English is my primary language; I'm learning Spanish as a secondary, though in the future I'm planning on learning Hindi and Irish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transcendence Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I'm Norwegian, but I'm fluent in both American and British English, and I'm fairly good at Danish and Swedish (they're kinda elaborate Norwegian accents, but hey-ho) and I'm learning French. Being gifted at linguistics, I'll probably spend a lot of my time on this godforsaken planet learning languages and utilizing them to the best of my abilities.

BioGio Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I speak English natively. Currently, I am in Spanish class and working more outside of class (hopefuly to the point of being able to work at an accelerated rate eventually). I also plan on learning a few other languages using the Internet. (Specifically, I'm interested in learning some French, German, and/or Arabic.) ~ BioGio Quote dig "You're a scientist?

Katuko Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Norwegian is my mother tongue, but I've been learning English since I was young. I'm not always perfect in my pronunciation, but I dare say that I have better grammar than certain native speakers I meet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Valjean Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 My native language is English. Someday I plan on visiting the Netherlands and am taking a class on the Dutch language and customs. I plan on continuing onto the next semester with my studies. I cannot say for sure whether I will learn for more than one year, although I think I will. In spite of what other people think, it is a beautiful language. Guttural languages felt more genuine to me and closer to my soul. There are the more musical languages such as Spanish, French, and other Romance languages, which to me have a vague association with the element of air, but I feel a more personal attachment to the element of Earth. I think it is foreseeable that within my lifetime I might also learn German, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. It might not all happen, but I would seriously consider an attempt at them all. After all, there are plenty of years in one lifetime. There was also a year and a half that I learned some Spanish, which I retained more than I expected. Perhaps I will never be fluent, but what I currently know might still be useful one day. Your Honor,Emperor Kraggh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Protodite Karzahni Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 English, American, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand-ish. I studied Spanish for GCSE and got a C in it (Painfully, the only C I received, although better than the D I was expecting) and as you can guess from the little bracket enclosed tangent there, I didn't do very well in it and have promptly forgotten most of what I learnt. I also studied Japanese for another course, and did the compulsory french course. Unsurprisingly, I didn't do very good in any of them. I'm not sure how people learn different languages, but I just don't seem capable of it, which is unfortunate as people would probably think I'm ignorant as a result when I go to a non-English speaking country. I'm also part german, but have barely started to learn that. Quote I wrote stories once. They were okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
