    • I took 4 years of German but all the breaks in between made retaining the language a little too difficult. When a group of us went to Germany, however, I found I can understand it very well. It's just responding that gets me :/

    I suppose you could call my English fluent. Although I have some issues with malapropism from time to time XD

    I only speak English and scant Spanish and Japanese. More often I've found it drudgery to learn new languages; it's not because I don't find them in intrigue but because I don't think anyone can be taught languages and feel as fluent with those languages as they could be learning it naturally and from birth. That's just me, though - there are some amazing bilingual folk out there but I find that a good way to teach one language is not to teach them as though you were giving a lecturer of sorts. An assortment of verbatim doesn't mean as much as it could to me if I can't learn it naturally.

    • Finnish: Terve. Nimeni on Larvitar ja olen kotoisin suomesta.
    English: Hi. My name is Larvitar and I am from Finland.
    Swedish: Hej. Jag heter Larvitar och jag är från Finnland.

    • English and decent Spanish (only halfway in my second year, though).
    After Spanish, maybe Italian. And, if I to learn another one, I'll take French. But Italian will probably be a breeze after Spanish xD

    English and Mandarin Chinese- the latter being more semi-fluent than actually fluent.

    Then Japanese and French are sorta there...? xD;

    I'd narrow it to English and Mandarin. Though my favorite language is by far Taiwanese. It has the most hilarious sound to it. xD

    - English
    - Japanese (Still learning)
    - Some Spanish
    - Some French

    Yeah, the French and Spanish are just a few terms I've picked up here and there, nothing too great. As for Japanese, I've been learning it in school for a couple of years, and I'd like to think I'm pretty good at it. xD
