What languages do you speak / would you like to speak?

[ArielCurlicue 30]

Of the languages I would like to learn, the top two are Japanese and Spanish, due to personal interest as well as amount of others I've met who spoke those languages. I'd also like it if I could speak Italian, Russian, German, French. The more languages, the greater the opportunity of making friends from other places in the world. A useful investment in life and the workplace.

[Yarishia 144]

I speak Polish (my native language), English and I'm learning German but I'd like to learn Japanese or/and Spanish.

[-Octavia- 1,176]

English, Italian, Japanese. I would say Latin, but it is not exactly a language one can speak fluently; I can only write it. Tried learning a bit of German, but it's not for me.

[Merion 783]

I'm surprised Polish is included in this poll! That's my native language

[Sekr Gray 520]

I'm only fluent in me native language at the moment, English, but I'd love to learn a bunch of different languages. Mostly just for curiosity and traveling

• Danish  
• Dutch (to better talk when I visit a friend)

Primarily English and Chinese (with a Taiwanese dialect), though I can also speak some Spanish (learned it in the U.S. during high school) and Japanese (learned it in Taiwan, middle school).

I speak english and would like to learn German and Japanese since I'd like to go to those countries one day.

[Stormlight 1,371]

My first language was English and second was Ilocano, which I can understand fully but speak only a little. I would like to polish my Japanese and even learn Chinese soon, as I am part chinese and interested in learning more about my heritage.

[Dreambiscuit 9,691]

There are so many talented ponies here with a gift for language! It's so impressive! I desperately want to resume learning German, but my computer's sound chip is faulty so I can't use my Rosetta Stone program anymore. I have Duolingo in my iPod, but it's not nearly as good. 

[Aspirant Pony 93]

Ah, that's an interesting question. I've always have had this fascination for languages because they give this sense of achievement when you're learning them, even if only bit by bit. Thing is, I don't live in an English-speaking country and neither have I had the opportunity to study it in school by the age I had learned a decent amount of the language. It was more of a necessity than sheer desire, but, I wasn't actively searching to learn it. It just sorta stuck as the world around me(video games and the like) spoke English and only it.

 

However, I would like to learn more of Russian, Swedish and Icelandic, among various other languages.

P.S. My first language is Portuguese.

I speak English and French. I'm somewhat conversational in Spanish, I do however know a lot of Spanish swear words though.

 

When I get the time I'd love to learn German, I have family in Germany so it'd be nice to speak to them in German.

 

edit: I'd also like to one day learn Québécois

I'd also like to one day learn Québécois

Isn't Québécois mostly French, just with some different words like 'le char' instead of 'la voiture'?

fin de la semaine instead of week-end

 

So yes, basically. Although there are regional variations in other countries too, but no one really cares about them studying them in depth because not anglophone I guess, ehh
