Any Bilingual Escapists here?

[NoNameMcgee]

Only English currently but I am in the process of learning french. Only just started so I can't even string sentences together yet.

 

[sansamour14]

sup Spanish English and a little bit of Japanese

 

[Mr C]

First language is English and I can speak Chinese though I can barely read it, something I am currently changing.

今、大学で日本語を勉強してる、来年の５月に卒業する。　高校に行った時、スパイン語とフランス語を勉強して、普通英語を話すけど、スコットランドのゲ－ル語は私のまず習った言語だった。

yeah, that was so much easier to think about in japanese >_< I'm studying japanese at uni at the moment, graduate next May, I did french and spanish in high school, I usually speak english, but Scots Gaelic was my first language.

 

[TipsyPeaches]

English is first
Spanish was second
German was third (weakest out of all now)
Japanese is now fourth (still learning, probably the coolest out of any of them) (it also seems to be the most logical)

have you gotten to &#25964;&#35486; (keigo) yet? then japanese loses all its logic points in one fell swoop.

Native English as well as pretty much fluent French & Italian, conversational Spanish, can read Latin, a few words in Cantonese, Greek, German and Tagalog and I'm trying to learn Farsi at the moment.

 

[RooftopAssassin]

Oui, l'anglais est ma premiere langue et j'ai choisi francais comme ma seconde.

Yes, English is my first language and I chose French as my second.

J'adore francais. C'est une telle langue de beutiful.

 

[xXAsherahXx]

Unfortunately, I can read basic french for toddlers, and I know some Spanish curses. I would rather learn German or Russian or both.

As a sarcastic comment, does Leet Speak count?

 

[PayneTrayne]

Mon Francais est comme ci, comme sa. Especially when it's written (though I don't have a problem reading it), but verbal French I'm passable at.

 

[Samus Aaron]

English is first and only for me. But I have taken Spanish 1 through 3, and next year I will take numero cuatro. Also, I know how to translate Hebrew, but I don't know any of the vocabulary

Aleph, Bet, Vet, Gimel, Dalet, Hay... Blablabla

 

[SturmDolch]

Let me list them:

1st language: Swiss-German
Close second language: English
Other Fluent Language: German
Other Languages with intermediate knowledge: French, Spanish
Learning Cantonese from my girlfriend.

I love languages!

 

[Haukur Isleifsson]

Ég tala reiðbrennandi íslensku. Eins og tæplega 500000 aðrir á hnettinum.

I, evidently, speak English relatively fluently although my spelling sucks.

Ich spreche Deutsch hässlich aber Ich kan verstehe den gut. Ich liebe zu können verstehe Rammstein Texte.

Jeg snakker forfærdelig Dansk og de fleste gange kan jeg ikke forstå noget. De danske snakker helt hurtigt.

 

[Vrach]

Serbian is my primary language so English is second, aye.

I think the majority of people from all countries learn at least one other language, though I can't say, our education system might be different (we learn 2, one of which is usually prioritised).

I also learned German back in school, but it didn't stick (much... I know a few things here and there, but that's it). Teachers were so focused on grammar and crap like that, and their own accents (and voices for that matter ) were shit, so we never heard what an actual native speaker sounds like. When I saw a couple of German/Austrian movies a couple years after finishing high school, I was amazed by how awesome the language sounded like when spoken properly and really felt crap for missing the opportunity to learn it.

lol, no. That is the one thing about japanese, it's only a few islands, but they've got like, 30 different versions of it, lol.

 

[shticks]

Un peu du Francais.

 

[Blue Musician]

Sorry if this thread has been done to death, but I was just wondering what languages my fellow Escapists speak.

Seeing that the Escapist is pretty diverse in the amount of people from around the world that frequent the site, I figure that this thread would be a cool idea.

Hell, feel free to answer the question in a different language, I have Google translator on a different tab.

I myself am fluent in German (well, I was fluent two years ago ) and obviously English is my primary language.

I kinda wanna learn Russian, or maybe Spanish would be a good idea seeing as it's my country's second language.

Anyways, let the thread commence!

I do, I am a native Spanish speaker, and as you can tell I also know English. I guess nearly in the same level in Spanish, just verbally flawed. But whatever.

I would like to learn Russian, Armenian and/or Japanese.

 

[ilion]

I know some latin and greek, some spanish and a bit of japanese, would love to learn some russian or chinese, german is also cool but would come last. my native is portuguese.

 

[Tsudokun]

English is my first, I'm pretty fluent in basic French(and getting better to impress a certain someone &#9829 and I'm starting on Japanese
