English , Spanish , French , and a lil of Vietnameese...;)
I found that really closed-minded and arrogant~... who says people take language classes because they want to be able to use them in their area? a lot of people choose to take French over Spanish simply out of interest. you can think learning Spanish will be more useful, sure, but that doesn't mean those who choose to take German or French are wasting their time and energy learning something they're actually interested in.Splat said:English, obviously, and I am a moderate Spanish speaker. I hate it when people in the southwest here who don't already know Spanish take classes like French and German. Unless you move to one of those countries it probably isn't going to be useful in real life...here Spanish is extremely useful. French and German are not. End.
And people shouldn't say they know Japanese if they only know like four phrases, or any language for that matter. I don't know what most people's obsession is with wanting to learn Japanese so badly.
