I am bilingual.

My first language is English et mon 2ieme langue est francais.

Hi there!
My mother tongue is Italian but I speak also English, Spanish and Portuguese. I can read a bit of French and Irish as well but I can't speak them...

This is probably not the right place to post this but, has anyone used Rosetta-Stone? I would like to learn Spanish, and i'm just not sure ther's many other ways. The drawback is it's kind of expensive, so does it work?
I'm a pretty fast learner, I think. *laughs*

I'm from Bulgaria, so I speak Bulgarian (obviously ) , English and I'm good at German. I'm still learning it, but I know quite a lot of stuff already

You people amaze me.
This is what you get for being american though-only knowing English. Well, unless you count pig latin.
I'm in 3rd year Spanish, but am faaaar from being fluent at all. Sometimes I watch the Spanish channels on my tv and am just like, "when did I learn this in school?" And I'll get excited when I can understand a word. "Ah! He said amigo!! I know what that is!!"

My first language is Swedish, I'm fluent in English and drowning in Finnish aka I understand most of it, but have a hard time finding the right words to answer, usually works OK, and sometimes it goes like this:
Little street shop, selling random garden stuff.
Owner: Can I help you?
Me: No thanks, I'm just reading... (vain lukea...)
I also understand Norwegian and Danish fairly well since they're so close to Swedish.

I only know english. I 'learnt Italian' for SEVEN YEARS in primary school and I can't remember how to say what my name is. We spent the whole time learning about random stuff. We learnt about horse-racing! And coffee! And the courses of a meal! But never Italian.

I learnt more German in my first two terms of it then in the whole time I 'learnt Italian'. Hallo, meine Katze ist doof. See? SEE?

Sorry, I just had to let that out. Signora better not like twilight and read this.

your cat is stupid? very creative

if you can't even remember my name is in italian your teacher was probably not the best....
and wow ....pretty good german (as far as i can judge this with only one sentence...)

I probably posted a message in this thread already, but who cares?

English and Tagalog's my main expertise, but I can barely speak Tagalog anymore. I can understand it but I haven't been exposed much to the language that I've already forgotten some words.

Bilingual in French and English. Conversational Spanish (studying abroad in Spain right now) and been taking it for 6 years and a half now. I hope to be truly fluent one day!
