I realize we have had an increasing number of members who live in countries other than the United States. Because of this, I figured we could have a thread about language(s). Obviously everyone here can either speak, write, or comprehend English. We can also discuss languages we are interested in knowing.
I, for one, aim to be multilingual. But currently, I can only speak tidbits of other languages - nothing snazzy. I took French I and plan to take Spanish I & Spanish II. I have taken the time to try and learn Irish Gaelic, but I would prefer to learn a language which is more commonly used before I learn more uncommon languages (although I really want to be able to speak Irish Gaelic someday fluently). I basically would love to know some more rarer languages, but quite a few of the more widely spoken languages (i.e. Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, etc).
What language(s) do you know how to speak, read, or write?
What language(s) do you intend to learn?
