^^^ Thats because they are all "romance" languages based on Latin. So if you know one fluently, it can be easier to pick up the rest.

My question is: how many languages do you need besides English?? If some person want to speak to me ... they better do it in English ... otherwise, don't even think about it. I love it when dumb Asians talk to me in their native language asking for assistance ...

I took 4 years of HS French over 20 years ago. There's very little of it left, since I haven't had the opportunity to practice much here in the States. I know a few phrases in Korean. "Thank you. You're welcome. Do you want to get freaky?" Just the basics.

So basically, no. Just English.

I'm fluent in Greek and English. Both my parents immigrated here from Greece in 1967.

I'm fairly fluent in "geek"! Bit of French (better be considering where I live!) Always wanted to learn Klingon.Probably won't!

I speak a little broken Tex-Mex, "Dos mas cervezas, por favor." "Donde esta el bano?"

I can read Canadian French product labels and I can read and write Irish Gaeilge but I can't speak it.

It is very difficult to speak Irish.

^^^^I have to agree....I've been trying to learn Irish for a while now ! Luckily I have some family that still speak it, and are able to help me out with the pronunciation.

Otherwise, French and English - basic need for living and working in Quebec.

I thought I was doing great when I was first learning Irish. Then I opened my mouth and discovered the truth, lol.

My tongue just doesn't move that way!

I took French for twelve years so I've more or less got that one down. I guess it doesn't make me proficient in Spanish or anything but I can understand a lot of it since French and Spanish are very similar. Currently I'm in the process of learning Mandarin which , as I'm discovering, is a lot like I imagine learning Klingon to be.
