I was just curious how many bi+ lingual people we have here at Techspot. I myself speak English (I know English), Spanish (Hablo Español), and a tiny bit of Russian (Я знаю Русский)(I'm literate but I have trouble spelling things, and I know a few phrases). Have a good day :wave: !

I speak Danish (Jeg taler dansk), English, very little French (Je parle français)
(and a few lousy lines of German that aren't even enough to say "I speak German" :( )

Being Danish I don't have a pretty hard time understanding Swedish and Norwegian.

Edit: If that's how we're doing it then: ActionScript, C, C++, Python, HTML, Command.com/cmd, D (not fluently), Visual Basic (not that I ever use it), GML (lame I know)

Annoying those non-english characters, aren't they? :)

Fortran, Cobol, PL/1, PLS, Assembler, TAL, C, Java, Perl, Tcl/TK, sh, csh, bash,
Prolog, SQL

As I said in another post, is that really appropriate for the younger users?

I know enough to get what I want and thats it. I can read and write german a little, its been awhile


German

Arab

Korean

Idiot

The arab is what a learned when I was in Iraq. You know " Stop or I will kill you" or "You cannot marry my wife"

Korean is just limited to hello, thank you, good bye, one please and I need a cab

My wife deciphers the idiot for others at times

Spanish
English
Italian
Portuguese (limited, but im getting there)
French (only understand)


...and a few phrases in Korean since I went to an International school a few years back.

Любой здесь говорит на русском языке? :unch:
Does anyone speak Russian here? :unch:

If someone does, I need help with memorizing the present tense! I really hope my school offers Russian next year so I'll actually be able to do more that read it and stand dumbfounded over the book while asking my friend to decipher it for me :D

Wow....15 years old and you know all that? Dang, wish I was that smart when I was 15! lol...

Yeah Halo, It's good to speak more languages... You can mess with people :D

All men speak this language, however, some of us are better then others.

Either that or he is a master at BSing

Yeah Halo, It's good to speak more languages... You can mess with people :D

I love to do that! Sometimes I'll just go and say *something* in either Spanish or Russian. If I'm bored, I write in Russian, and no one knows (except my friends) what I'm saying :D !

EDIT:
TimeParadox, I need help with the Russian Present tense! (i.e ya -> u, ti -> esh, on/ona -> aet, etc.)

My point exactly:haha:

The BN LTC needs to see the NCOIC at 1800 in regards to the PFC who received NSF for his DPP. The SFC said that the PFC was FUBAR. Now the PFC is on CQ for 45 of ED.

clearly :)

I have to agree there :p

Anyone in the military can decipher it easily.
I can make it harder if you wish

The AO is located in the new FOB which is near this LSA. BIAP is not the place to be with a LOGPAC. SGM performed an AAR with the NCO on SAETA and OPSEC. Too many LTs are giving away the GPS over unsecured COMSEC.

The area of operations is located in the new forward operations base which is near this logistics support area. Baghdad International Airport is not the place to be with a Logistics Package. The Sergeant Major performed an after-action review with the non-commissioned officer on SEATA and operations security. Too many lieutenants are giving away the global positioning system over unsecured communications security.

Whew, stupid acronyms.

Otherwise I speak English, German, Spanish, and a few words of Russian.

English, most widely used language i think and albanian, the second most widely used language... in albania. haha. albanian is good because absolutely nobody knows what youre saying (only like 5 million people, tops, speak it in the world.) Just in case anybody is wondering, it is a romance language, without the romance, or at least not as much as italian, french, spanish and portugese. speaking of those languages, i took all 4 in school. started with spanish (2 years)moved to french (4 years) then italian (1 year) and finally portuguese (1 year). yep i know how to say almost nothing in 4 diffrent languages.

i took a trip to japan to visit a friend, and honestly i picked up a few words and a few characters, it didnt seem that hard at all, then again i only learned what i wanted to so maybe that makes it easier. damn shibuya is awesome and so is roppongi. miss both places.

The most widely spoken language in the world is Chinese, Mandarin. The English language comes in 2nd place.
