I speak Bulgarian (native) & English

Let's see,  a smattering of Spanish and maybe 40 words in German. English has to do most times.

HUUUMMM.  English of course.  And just enough Spanish to really get myself in trouble.

English and some German

Maggie

Foreign languages was a hobby of mine when I was young and so I became fairly proficient at a few including:

Spanish, French, Italian

German + some related Scandinavian dialects

Russian, Japanese

The problem with languages is it's a use it or lose it type thing so I've become pretty rusty and have forgotten most of them 

But if I'm around one of them long enough I start to pick it back up fairly quickly 

English and a bit of Khmer (Cambodian)
Myles Andrew

English (as an Icelander, English is a foreign language to me!), Swedish, and I comprehend/can manage through; German, Danish, Norwegian, Faroese and Spanish.

Fluent in Spanish and English.

English and French, although my French is really rusty even though I had 9 years of it, once you stop using it actively you lose a lot. I'd love to be fluent but classes cost a lot. Maybe I can just get a friend to help. :B

Thought I knew some spanish but when we went on vacation 2 peru & chile I found out I know nothin 
Couldnt understand anythin. 

I only know English & some words in spanish. that's it.

English and German (however after not using it for 3 years I think I forgot a lot)

I need to learn Spanish sometime since I live in CA haha

Except for English, I don't SPEAK any language particularly well. I have a good reading knowledge of both Spanish and French. I read Middle English quite easily. My Russian is mostly gone, but I used to be able to stumble through many useful phrases like "krasivaya golaya zhenshina!" and "u vas yest karadash?" ("beautiful naked woman" and "do you have a pencil?")

Funny that those two came up together. (Well, think about it.)

english spanish and some french as my mother was from france

Thank you.  Maybe I should have been clearer & titled this thread "the languages you speak" instead of "the 'foreign' languages you speak".

Bulgarian is my native language, so it isn't a 'foreign' language to me.  English is.


EDIT: Changed title

Dutch is my native language.  I also speak Danish, Swedish, German & English. 

 I lived with my French Canadian Grandmother when I was young and we spoke mostly French. I studied it in high school and could converse but Gram passed, school was over, c'est la vie.
Then I worked in the Dominican Republic for 4-5 years and picked up a lot of Spanish. Now that helps with my interaction with the Puerto Rican people on my island. We get a lot of Danish visitors here.

Eh.. un(e) peau de (la) francais*, mais c'est pas parfait, et mon grammar n'est pas bien. haha, je ne sais pas si vous me pouvez comprehendre

Will translate if asked

*i forget the gender of the noun "French"

So your French isn't that great.  When writing that what a Babel fish is for.


Janet

I've found I can do a better job than babble fish does. It has an annoying habit of not correcting verb forms (meaning, using the root word when it's supposed to be 3rd person plural (it's like saying "They go to store")

So I have noticed.   

But that was how I found out what you had said, or at least close.
