French.

Important thing I learned yesterday: If you want to say shut up in French, say "pumpernickel." And I mean the curse word, not this filter.

It's spelled as chit but pronounced as "pumpernickel."

Well I took Spanish from 3rd-high school, so I'm pretty good at it..although they say you have to be around the language constantly to REALLY speak it...which is true. Now I'm learning French from my mom.

I'm taking 3rd year IB French right now.

I also know an eclectic mix of about 50 Japanese words and its two basic alphabets, which is essentially nothing but I plan to purchase a textbook eventually and actually learn the language.

Besides english, i speak bengali and arabic. I've picked up a bit of hindi as well. As far as school taught languages, i've taken about 8 years or so of spanish.
Japanese is something i've always wanted to learn, so i'm trying to teach myself little by little.

I speak English (some what fluently), have taken 3 years of Spanish class (not good at it though), and learned a little German...

I want to learn Japanese too, but my parents think it's a useless language. I also have no idea how to teach myself Japanese, either? Do you buy those special books or something?

I speak English. I also speak a bit of Spanish, French, Tagalog, and right now I'm studying American Sign Language. Shine

I grew up speaking Tagalog (my grandparents don't speak much English so we were immersed in Tagalog whenever we went to our grandparents' house.) However, of the languages I know, it is the one I am least comfortable speaking because I've gotten out of the habit of speaking it; if my grandma or one of my aunties asks me a question in Tagalog, I'll usually respond in English or in grammatically broken Tagalog. I'm horrible.

Took French from K-8 (it was a private, Catholic, French school) but sadly I didn't practice it at all for 10 years after I graduated from there, so I'm very rusty at it. I'm currently taking a French class as well to brush up on it, and it's all coming back to me very quickly.

Of the foreign languages I know, Spanish is probably the one I'm most comfortable speaking, even though I only took it for 3 years. It is very structurally similar to French, which made it very easy to pick up, and it also has a lot of the same vocabulary as Tagalog. (Which makes sense, since the Spanish conquered our land, raped our women, and bastardized our language. But I digress.)

Sign language is awesome, because our teacher is awesome. I'm totally noob though. Eek
