How many languages do you know? How did you learn the other languages?

Polish is my native, so I learned it naturally.

I have huge part of family living in Germany so I always spoke some and understood a lot. But when I was a teenager I attended German Gymnasium for two years and it was how I learned it, lol.

English out of need and self-taught (that's why my grammar sucks). As a software engineer I had all resources available mainly in English, so I had no choice :D

[Elena_Stewart]

That’s amazing 😊
You work in the IT sector, that’s another amazing thing, I bet you salary is 🤑😁

[euniestars]

Spanish and English

I learned English because of school 😭

[Elena_Stewart]

I love Spanish🙂

[euniestars]

[Elena_Stewart]

No😢

[euniestars]

aw well if you try to learn it one day, ill make sure the Spanish gods help you 🤣

[Elena_Stewart]

[AviatorTom]

I know several dialects (versions) of English and I can get by in French, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese, often just enough to get me in (or out of) trouble.

I studied French in high school, my former in-laws were Latinos, and Chinese I picked up doing projects in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong.

[NathanDavis]

I learned Spanish...

I never studied English

these are the two I speak of

[Elena_Stewart]

I love Spanish😊

[NathanDavis]

do you speak some of it? or love the sound of it?

[Elena_Stewart]

Speak none, I love the sound of it specially the songs😊

4. I speak my 2 mother tongue languages at home. Arabic and another I’d rather not share as it narrows down exactly where I’m from and I enjoy the level of anonymity 😅

I learned English when I moved to Canada.
I took ASL while everyone else was getting bombed with French in middle school.

[Elena_Stewart]

Awsome🙂
You mean Arabic language and an accent or Arabic language and another language?
Because I know Arabic countries they all speak Arabic but different accents

[electromagnetic]

I speak Arabic (Oman) and another language entirely

[Elena_Stewart]

Awsome😊
I am hearing that Oman is an amazing country🙂

[Billlewis]

Oh my goodness... is there no end to your depth and knowledge?

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Only Japanese (my first language) and English to a reasonable degree of fluency. I did study Mandarin and Cantonese along with Spanish for high school and university but I'm afraid I've forgotten almost all of it.

[Elena_Stewart]

Maybe try learning them again🙂

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I'd like to try again with the Spanish. I still remember a lot of the grammar rules and alphabet but I've forgotten a lot of vocabulary and also the more complex verb conjugation rules, like subjunctives.

[purplepoppy]

Only two Welsh and English but that's because I grew up in a bilingual community. I learned German at school but never took it beyond that and I've forgotten most of it.

[Levin]

Welsh does not count.

[Elena_Stewart]

@purplepoppy may be try learning German again

[purplepoppy]

Might try pick it up when I get more free time

[Massageman]

English, with Oxford commas, thank you.

Some Spanish, enough to find bathrooms, food and to massage Spanish-speaking clients. Donde esta el dolor? (Where is the pain?).

Some basic sign language.

ome-sa ig-pay atin-la.

[Elena_Stewart]

Awesome 🙂

[DancingQueen16]

The only language I speak fluently is English but I know a little bit of Spanish, French and Sign Language

[Elena_Stewart]

Sign language 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[Agape93]

English and norwegian fluently and German very well.

Immersion and practice

[Elena_Stewart]

Awesome, how did you learn them?

[Agape93]

Immersion and practice. I spent a year in Germany, and got to soak it in. I spent a few years off and on in Norway, and absorbed the language over time.

[DJB72]

3. English - duh - French and Afrikaans. French at school and I've picked up a bit of Afrikaans by living in South Africa

[Elena_Stewart]

Awesome 🙂

[ohsheeT]

I love this question because I'm English and I don't even know English half the time LOL I only know one or two but nobody else knows what they are and do I but I can communicate

Took two years of Spanish in college, but did not, stay with it, and cannot now carry on a coherent conversation in Spanish.
