The_Shadow_Dweller · Accepted Answer

As millions of Indians, I am able to speak three languages. My mother tongue, Marathi, then the languages that were taught in our school. They being Hindi and English.

We were also taught Sanskrit and French, but did not give even 1% of attention to French. Sanskrit was cool to learn, but forgot about it now.

Mainly English to some degree (Japanese is my first). I also studied Spanish and Mandarin but I barely remember them.

I know a lot of Spanish, but I'm not fluent in it. It's hard to learn another language when u get older. I hear Spanish all day everyday b/c my husband, but I still haven't become fluent! The slang I know very well though.. strange how our brains work. We catch on to the bad words faster than the necessities!
