What languages can you speak or write in, other than english?

Taco Godess · Jul 28, 2008 6:32 PM

What if you meet a complete stranger in Germany who you donâ€™t know, and all you can say to that person is â€œI love youâ€? Lol.
Itâ€™s good to hear you do really well in english, what marks do you get in english class at school?

Lol XD

Stranger: Wie geht es Dir? (How's it going?)
Me: Ich liebe dich (I love you)
Stranger: o_O

I don't take English class because last year I was in 5th.

This year I'm still going to be in elementary school, because my school teaches 4th, 5th, and 6th! mad

But I do get good grades in spelling and writing.

Cool. There's a wide range here. I was gonna do this as a poll but didnâ€™t know how it would work out, so Iâ€™ll do a tally for the comments so far, although it probably isnâ€™t accurate:

People competent in these languages (other than English):

French â€“ 2
German â€“ 1 or 2
Greek â€“ 1
Spanish â€“ 1
Korean â€“ 1
Tagalog â€“ 1

People who know languages to varying levels (ranging from â€˜not much at allâ€™ to â€˜a fair bitâ€™):

Spanish â€“ 5
French â€“ 4
Tok Pisin â€“ 1
Albanian â€“ 1
German â€“ 3 or 4
Japanese â€“ 2
Italian â€“ 2
Chinese â€“ 1
Dinotopian â€“ 1
New Zealand (Maori???) â€“ 1

I can write in the language I'd made up! (Pro'ably doesn't count...)

Rurikredwolf · Dec 11, 2008 2:54 AM

I agree with Meepster.

I can speak English and BM, but my Bahasa Malaysia is bad, and I do not speak Chinese language, Tamil, and Hindi.

I learnt Japanese at school this year.

Erza · Dec 17, 2008 8:32 PM

I hate my school. You have to learn Japanese for 4 years. Than you can choose if
you want to or not. But the thing is. EVERYONE in my Form wants to learn French.

I can speak a little German. Actually, a very disappointing amount considering that I've taken it for five years. -__-
