Second Languages

What languages do you speak besides English?

I'm fluent in Russian, and it's essentially my home language, and also Spanish. I'm not completely fluent in it, but I understand ~60-70% of the Spanish soccer broadcasts.

I know a bit of Spanish, but it wouldn't be enough to get anything that I needed if I happened to be in a Spanish-speaking country.

I know 13375P34K, too...

You really expect most Americans to think there is a language besides English?

For me it was Parisian French thinking that might be usefull living neare Quebec.... no, speaking Parisian French there you might as well be speaking English

Maybe better understoood, but just as maligned in treatment (at least 15-25 years ago)

But at least I could read the signs and get around (or to a restroom on my own

Difference between us and most countries.... they learn second language from early childhood and it is an inate part of just learning... here it is in high school if at all where by then it is a real CHORE!

Shouldn't you be learning Spanish as it will be the most used language in the US in a few decades?

Oh, I'm not talking about working over there. If you look at how the backbone of this country has degraded because US companies have allowed the Chinese to design, manufacture molding & produce parts for them, thus eliminating the work force needed here; this is where learning Chinese becomes a must. Very sad!

Ahh Johkal See Profile the same guy that picked Camden, NJ as the picturesque capital of the USA.;)

Same as you. Ebonics in general and NYC speak. "A, ow you dune? I'm from New Yawk. Meet my friend "Doe knee" (Tony).

Other than that no second language. Always wished I learned Italian (Dad) or Polish (Mom) but never did.

Should have learned Spanish though. That would have been the most useful. Lots of Spanish speaking folks coming into the area.
