How many languages can you speak and understand?

Question

Account · Accepted Answer

I can sort of understand 5 but I can speak 3 fluently.
2 I can understand if others speak very slowly and I have the habit of confusing those two languages together because I tried to study those at the same time for a very short period of time and to me they are similar 🙄, but I can understand texts or songs written in those languages if I concentrate for some time.

Other than my native American English...

I can get by in French and Spanish, and know the differences between American English and British and Australian English. I also know some words, numbers and phrases in German and Mandarin Chinese.

English. A fee words of French a few more of German but not enough to get directions. Spanish probably more than the other two. See?

AliceGregory · Answer

I only speak English.

I knew my dad speaks English and Swedish and because Swedish is so similar to Danish and Norwegian, he can understand them too. I also recently found out he can speak Thai and understand Mandarin.

He was born in the US and is of Swedish descent. My mom's from Thailand and was of Chinese descent but she died when I was 2 :(

But she did manage to teach my dad Thai and some Chinese before she passed.
