I'm a language obsessed linguist but I won't pretend I spesk everything fluently like a lot of us do, haha!
I'm definitely fluent in English and German, I'll just barely get by in French and Latin (extremely useful /s) and I know very basic Japanese, Dutch, Spanish and DGS (that's the equivalent to ASL that's used in Germany).
(All of the latter ones, I've only picked up for a year or two and then forgot a lot about them, sadly...)
I have a lot of resources to learn Irish because I've been wanting to learn that for ages, but since it's not exactly the most practical language to know, I always end up picking up some of the pther ones again, to improve on them (or not forget them)...

But I'd be happy to talk more in any of these!

When I said "I won't pretend to speak everything fluently like a lot of us do", I meant linguists. I was not trying to talk down on anyone here in this thread!
It's just embarassingly common when I talk to people that they'll claim to be fluent in 15 languages or something.

Just wanted to clear that up! I think the languages represented by everyone in this thread are extremely cool!

Probably Czech because it enables me to speak to my grandma, but I really like the feel of German

I think the most fun for me is Dutch. Most Germans think it's funny because it sounds like drunk German. But it's kinda funny and beautiful at the same time I think. 🙂

I’ve been learning French for about seven years now, so I’m pretty good at understanding the language. I need to work on listening skills though bc whenever I hear native French speakers, I sometimes miss a lot of what they say due to the speed at which they communicate. But my speaking, reading, and writing skills are pretty good! I also speak a bit of spanish, but I definitely need to work on my Spanish speaking skills, and I can understand and read more than I can speak or write.

They really are all beautiful, you're right 🙂
It's almost sad that humans don't live long enough to learn every language.

Oh, French buddies @nev_m_07 ! That's also where I am at. I keep slowing down audio books to 70% so it's easier for me to understand.
What's your native language?

@Aussie_Izz hmmm im not sure…😅I think I’d say English is easier to write in because in my opinion, the grammar is less complicated than in French. Lol because French has a lot of accents and stuff, little details you have to pay attention to.
