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

[–] tiny@midwest.social 2 points 4 months 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.

Was learning spanish but dropped it.

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.

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.

Estonian, English and a couple of the simplest words in Russian.

[–] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

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

Best to worst:
