    Well, aside from my native language (English), I know a fair amount of French, and a tiny amount of Spanish, so the other 2 languages I would learn are Croatian and Japanese.

  • Well I speak English, and I speak a lot of French. I wouldn't count myself as out of luck though, since I can use this to perfect my very rusty French skills and even if I didn't speak a word of French I would have chosen French anyway!

    So for the other three languages I'd go with Latin (it's a dead language but I really don't care, it's what all the awesome magical incantations are in), Spanish (spoken in tons of different places, I could live in Spain or Mexico!) and Russian. European languages have always interested me the most. I don't really have an interest in any Asian languages, I'm a huge fan of our alphabet.

  • I'm already fluent in English and Russian, so that leaves me with only three more choices! Definitely pretty hard, but I 100% know I'd go with both Japanese and German, leaving just one more decision.

    Not sure what that final language will be, buut I'm leaning towards French.. lovely language despite how much I work to get a good grade in my French courses, haha. /nightmares

  • I would chose English, Japanese, German, French and Italian. I already know English and a bit of German, Japanese would be good to know for video game and other purposes and French and Italian because I just had to think of another two.

  • Français, Deutsch, 日本人, ελληνικά, Latine.

    These are the main languages I feel like I want to learn and that I could dedicate myself into really learning.
    There are others but I don't think I would be that excited as with the ones above.

  • Since I am fluent in both English and Spanish, I would love to learn Italian because some words are close to Spanish and I love the Italians for making lasagna, Japanese because I love the Japanese culture and of course the anime and Chinese because I am always in Chinatown, New York with friends.

  • I speak English fluently and French passably. I'm in the midst of learning Japanese so I'll assume it gets boosted up to fluency as well.

    So for my last two languages... I'd go for Mandarin Chinese for sure. It's going to be a useful language in the future and I'm a little scared of learning it myself so insta-fluency would be pretty nice! I'm not sure what to pick last though. D: Maybe Russian or Arabic since it's very different from the others (I think?). I feel like knowing what I know would be sort of helpful in picking up other languages the traditional way, so I'd rather learn something very different instead of "wasting" instant fluency on something like Spanish which I imagine wouldn't be all that hard to pick up from French. (I understand a lot of what I see as it is. :s)

  • English, French, Japanese, Spanish and Mandarin.

    I don't actually care about Mandarin all that much, but the others I genuinely would like to become partially fluent in. Apart from English, of which I'm hopefully fluent, even if I'm learning new words every day! With regards to Mandarin, I just assume it'll become more and more important what with the growing dominance of China and all...

    I'd like to refine my Spanish skills. And since I'm going to India next year, I might as well pick Hindi, would save a lot of trouble.

    I would skip this instant business and just learn it myself. Learning a language is not hard--you just have to dissect the words and see how the pieces fit together. This way, I could learn as many languages as it pleased me.

  • Alongside my knowledge of English, probably Spanish, French, German and Mandarin. I want to know at least one Chinese language, I tried - and failed - to learn German years ago, and Spanish and French, I assume, are pretty need-to-know if I want to be able to socialize on an international level.

  • I'm fluent in English and French, so that leaves three.. Japanese, Swedish, and Cantonese.
    The first for cultural reasons. The second because I have a strange obsession with all things Swedish. The third because nobody has said it yet and I want to be different. :P
