English is the only language I'm even vaguely proficient in, really.

Le francais est le loin ma deuxieme langue la plus forte. Mais ce n'est toujours pas tres bon, et je dois passer beaucoup de temps pour ecrire dans francais, et generalement rechercher quelques mots ou expressions. Mais ma grammaire est assez bonne, je pense.

I also spent a few years learning Spanish, but almost none of it stuck. And a few years learning Korean while living in Korea. I learnt a few of the necessary words and phrases relating to restaurants and taxis, and some very rudimentary grammar. And being able to read the script is a neat party trick. And one year of actual Vietnamese education + a few more years of peripheral exposure to the language while I lived there. Even less of it stuck than the Spanish though.

Native English, conversational japanese, survival German (I was conversational at one point, but it's mostly gone), a tiny bit of french (same as German), very basic Spanish, and a tiny bit of Hebrew (I wanted to learn something in the semitic family and it seemed less intimidating than Arabic to start with)

English. I really wish I had done better in French class during school

[-] tiny@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Native English speaker. I learned some French in school and enough Japanese to get through a judo match. I struggle to retain other languages. Everywhere I go everyone speaks English and it's hard to justify learning a new one even everyone in a 1000 mile radius speaks English.

Hablo español de forma nativa. I can read, write and understand by ear English, but I refuse to speak it because the pronunciation rules of English are shit.

[-] tamal3@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Or are they shite? You're right we're fucked.

Native German, fluent English, full working proficiency in Norwegian, (understand Swedish and Danish as a direct consequence), somewhat proficient in Dutch and French, and my Chinese is enough to get by. Couldn't hold a longer conversation though.

I speak English, I studied Latin but have not kept up, and I know a tiny bit of Japanese and French.

[-] BlastboomStrice@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

Yo Greek (native), English and some German (B1 level). (Might learn Spanish or Portuguese too :) )

[-] MonsieurArkadin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Only truly fluent in English.

Tetapi aku bisa bicara bahasa Indonesia. Ada komunitas bahasa indonesia dalam lemmy? Aku tidak bisa cari apa-apa.

J'ai etudié francais a l'université, mais maintenant j'ai oublié beaucoup.

I speak a little Chinese, but am fully illiterate in it.

I want to learn Russian and Chinese

[-] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I’ve mostly got English and Japanese. English is pretty hard. I’m just a turtle.
