    I speak English and a little French. I could never have a conversation or anything, unless it was a very simple one lol. I took French my last two semesters, and my teacher was horrible. I want to continue to study it, but we'll have to see what happens when I graduate this year.

    I speak English
    Chinese(Cantonese, Mandarin and another dialect but can't write nor read the characters)
    Malay
    Simple Tibetan
    some words, sentences and songs in French and German but not good enough to make a long conversation.
    and some funny Czech words I picked up from a friend. Just so I can fight with her. :devil::lol:

    Hey Zippy, I speak Mandarin and Cantonese too! I can also read and write the characters. It's taken a few years....

    I also speak Japanese (and again, read and write it). Next on the list is British Sign Language.

    So many languages, so little time!

    Wow, I gave up learning how to read and write Chinese. The characters gave me endless headache. And now I have Tibetan grammar to cope with. Grammar sucks...worse when it's Tibetan. I think Tibetan language is Yoda's mother tongue :lol:...ich hab die schnauze voll!
