      Wind Seer, use the edit button if you feel you need to add something else.

      Anyways, know English (Obviously), French, enough Spanish to get around, and little Tagalog (Filipino).

      I'm wanting to learn Latin, Japanese, Chinese, and whatever Tagalog I forgot as of my childhood.

        I am tutoring the language Polish!
        Still interested?


        P.S.
        I always wanted to learn these languages: Latin, Japanese, Chinese, and Spanish.
        But there is almost no free time for me. And my brother is learning Spanish on his computer!

          I speak Dutch as my main language, it's my country's own language which isn´t much spoken over the world... Basically just in the Netherlands, Belgium and the Netherlands Antilles, and the rather unknown "Afrikaans" is based from Dutch to.

          I also speak English pretty well. I don't speak it perfectly, but I can atleast understand alot. My pronouching (sp?) isn't always that good either, but it's decent enough.

          I know a little German, and I can order a ice cream and say "I don't speak French." in French. :)

            I speak fluent dutch and english (if I'm in England for at least 3 days, I'll get in my own flow(?) again.)

            I know enough French, German and Italian to get around.
            And I can translate Latin and Ancient greek.

                    He's just shortened your username to the initials.
                    As for languages which I know, they're English (obviously) and the French which is forced down my throat by the National Curriculum (I hate it so much that I misspell the name!) which insists that I have to do some sort of language, even if I don't want to.

                      And I'll shorten it to TW. It's simpler that way.
                      I only know english, but I want to learn french and italian.

                        TW? But that would mean The Wind. Better to shorten it to WS: Wind Seer.
                        Sorry for straying a little off topic...

                          I know a LITTLE Spanish. Observe:


                          !Hola!



                          ?Que pasa?



                          Si, uno, dos, tres, quartro, cinco, ses.



                          Nice sombrero.



                          I know senorita and senor.



                          I don't remember what else I know.

                            I also a little Spanish but too much. Sun Saber knows more Spanish than me. In fact he is learning every day the language from his computer a few (6-12) words.

                            !hola! -- Hi!
                            Si, uno, dos, tres, quartro, cinco, ses. -- Yes, one, two, three, four, five.
                            senorita -- lady (or woman)
                            senor -- gentleman (or man)

                                  I learned Spanish and English at the same time as I grew up. Then French is easy once you know those too (and it's easy to understand Italian and written Portuguese). Aaaand, I also studied some Japanese but not too much.

                                    I used to be able to speak Norwegian but then I came to Canada and lost it. Now I have family members calling me and saying I should re-learn the language but I think it's to late for that.

                                        Are you by any chance in the third year of a gymnasium?

                                          Woah, Midnpatch, I'm impressed.

                                          I know English, and Chinese (both Mandarin and Catoonese, once you learn one, the other one isn't too hard). I should probably learn French, but I just dont' want it to count as my school grade because I had a late start on it. Other than that, I'm learning Japanese bit by bit.

                                              Currently I speak only Dutch and English fluently. My German is processing slowly, since I find it rather... uninteresting. I dropped french years ago. I also know some words in Italian, and I can count in Italian.

                                                  and I am learning jap o.o!

                                                      I know some basic, self-taught Latin, and some minor Japanese that I've picked up from watching a good deal of Anime. But, when I go to college next year, I plan on taking those two languages.

                                                              I know these languages:

                                                              English
                                                              Italian
                                                              French

                                                              I grew up learning English and Italian, and the Italian made it very easy to understand French. I may take a Japanese language class when I go to college. Other than that, yeah.
