And by foreign, I mean other than English, so if English is a foreign language to you, I'm not as much interested in that. :b


Who in this guild speaks a language besides English? O:
Even a bit?


I can speak a little bit of Spanish.
I took 4 Spanish classes in high school and I'll continue to study it in college.
Me encanta espaƱol. {I love Spanish.}


Any other languages I know are just like numbers or "hello" or something simple like that. lol

I love languages, too. [:
I wanna become fluent in Spanish, and then who knows where I'll go from there? User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.


I know a teensy bit of Japanese.
I know some song in Japanese. lol
But I don't know what those songs mean for the most part.
Japanese seems kinda interesting, but I'd probably never use it in real life.
I know this guy who's obsessed with Japanese, though.
He speaks it on a regular basis.
It's weird. D:
And my sister said "shithead" in Japanese while playing Mario Kart. :/
I thought that was really lame.

I studied Japanese for 6 years. I can't really speak it, I don't really like speaking it... so instead its more of a reading and writing thing, which is kinda odd. I don't like plain speech either, so I always go formal speech and I don't know why.

Anyways, I'm a bit rusty and really should start remembering it lol

I'm fluent in Spanish.

I want to learn Japanese so I can play all those cool Japanese video games that are still pending to (or will never) be released in English.

I know only a little itty bitty bit of Japanese and a little itty bitty bit of Spanish.

I wish I knew a ton of languages.... My Dad is fluent in Spanish, French and... Oh goodness.. Another African language. (He learned French in Africa as well as the other one)

But I think I got my language skills from my Mom......... "hoe-lah, coomoo ez-tah?!?!?!"

She's hilarious.

i'm fluent in filipino.
i still kinda suck at it though,
cause i think it's one of the most complicated languages to learn.
i mean, it has no logic! it's all memorization.
but yeah, i suppose german is harder because of the genders and stuff.


i also take french in school.
i only know the basic phrases though.
xD

@Armic: Why'd you study Japanese, if you don't mind my asking?

@Hinameki: Haha, that's a good reason to wanna learn. xD

@Squirely: But.. you don't pronounce the H in 'hola.' gonk

@Mariel: I didn't even know Filipino was a language. xD
I used to wanna learn German so bad, mostly 'cause I was being
patriotic about my heritage and I had lived there for a couple years
and learned realllyyy simple things like blue = blau, Mrs. = Frau, so I thought I was sooo coool. lol
I barely remember any German though 'cause that was like kindergarten. o.O

My mom knew Russian and I'm really bugged she forgot most of it, I wanted her to teach me...
I think Russian's a cool language.

Other than the usual 1 2 3, Hello, Good Morning, Goodbye, and song lyrics in a few languages... I know nothing of them.

My languages are Spanish and English. XD I should spen a minimum of 3 years In a country for me to learn its language correctly.
English was easy enough, but I still have much to learn...

Don't we all? :b
English is such a huge language, and even someone like me whose first language is English learns new words nearly every day.
(& then promptly forgets them.)
xD


@Mariel: Oh, I've heard of tagalog. O:

@Armic: Why'd you study Japanese, if you don't mind my asking?


There was a time where I was really into it, then one day I just lost all interest. Too much studying of it killed my love for the language. I'm now waiting for the interest to reignite and when it does, I plan on teaching myself. I always liked it better when I studied what I wanted to know, not what I need to know.
