My primary language is English, except I'm Vietnamese. Although, I'm not very fluent at it. I can speak some basic sentences, though. I'm also learning Spanish.

The only language is can speak fluently is Dutch although they teach many languages at my school, but our teachers aren't that great, so yeah I can't really speak those languages very well :p

You're from the Netherlands too?
I speak Dutch fluently (it's my native language) and I speak English fluently as well. I am learning Chinese and Latin (but except from in the Vatican there are no people who 'speak' Latin...). I also know a bit old Greek (though just a little bit) and I can understand (NOT speak) German, French, Spanish and most Germanic languages. I should be able to speak German and French but I got tired of the grammatics so I didn't study it enough... I really want to learn Swahili, I just like the way it sounds and from what I've heard it shouldn't be too hard. So if anybody here speak Swahili; Teach me master!

Jaaa :D ik spreek een beetje Engels, maar niet echt vloeiend. Genoeg om in ieder geval te overleven op internet :p volgens mij is ongeveer iedereen hier Amerikaans, heb niet vaak iemand gezien die Nederlands is hier of uberhaupt Europeanen :p beetje raar om nu Nederlands the praten :eek:
*ahem* yaaas! I can speak a little English, but not really fluently. It's enough to survive on the internet anyway. I have the feeling that almost everyone here is American, I haven't seen a lot of Dutch people here, or European people in general :p it's a bit strange to speak Dutch now :eek:

Er zijn hier best veel Europeanen, het is een aardig internationale gemeenschap hier. ;) Ik hou eiegenlijk meer van praten in het Engels, Engels is gewoon...eleganter.

There are quite a lot of European people here, it is a pretty international community here. ;) I actually like chatting in English more, English is just more...elegant.

Ja ik snap wat je bedoelt, Nederlands klinkt een beetje knullig ofzo :p al helemaal als er games vertaalt worden naar Nederlands en dan je lives 'levensmeter' noemen :facepalm:
Dutch sounds a bit awkward for some reason, especially when games get translated into Dutch :p

Mostly crayolese,but i can speak fluent english as well as some or more than 500 words of French,Portuguese and Spanish.

My native language is Spanish :p And I know a lot of English, probably sometimes is kind of dificult for me to write it or find some words but at reading I can understand everything.

Mi lengua natal es el Español. Pero además sé bastante Inglés. Tal vez algunas veces me cuesta escribirlo o encontrar algunas palabras pero en la lectura puedo entender prácticamente todo. (Me siento raro escribiendo en español aquí xD)

PD: I rather Spanish more than English but is important to know a second language :)

Here a video that always makes me laugh a LOT

I'm native to Americanese (aka "American English"), I'm fluent in real English dialects (aka Commonwealth English or British English), I know French as well as you'd expect an average high school grad from the US, and I have a limited working proficiency in Russian.

Я любю Россия.

Jamaican, and some Hindi. English is is easy too, because I live in America now.

I can speak english fluently, but that's really it... I also know the tiniest bit of Spanish and I'm trying to learn Japanese, but so far I can barely read Katakana and Hiragana...

If American English is English, I don't think Guyanese, Trinidadian, or Jamaican would count as languages.

Well they do have some kind of accent, but most words dont differ a lot. If you can understand what they say then it probably has the same meaning.

Vayamos haciendo ya una fiestecita entonces, nací y crecí en México.
Let's get a little party started, then. I was born and raised in Mexico.

Spanish is my first language. Other than english and spanish I only know a few words in different languages but not enough to consider myself fluent on anything else.

English is my first language, but I'm somewhat fluent in Kannada and French, and sort of Telugu. I can sort of get by on Hindi, but I get lost so easily when people speak fast.
