  • What languages do we speak?

    I haven't seen one of these polls recently.

    Check off a language if you know how to put sentences together and have a reasonable vocabulary. If you can read a book in the language, you can count it.

          The "none, I only speak English" option would have been interesting IMHO

            It's quite tricky because I can certainly read a book in Swedish and at least one of the Norwegian languages, even though I wouldn't be able to speak them at all. I chose not to check them.

              Finnish, German, French, and pitiful amounts of Swedish... and Swedish is nearly identical to Norweigian, which is nearly identical to Danish...

              Blech.

                Are you allowed to just press vote without selecting an option?

                  And I agree, Ari dominates.

                  Are you allowed to just press vote without selecting an option?
                  If curious, why not test it?

                    Good poll idea.

                    I speak Indonesian and I can read a little German.
                    Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost.

                      I'm trying to find an old multiple choice poll to test it out on.

                        Nope, it doesn't work. People who speak English only will just not be represented in this poll.

                          This poll sucks.

                              When the total amount of Danes having posted on this board during 2003 can be counted on one hand, what's the odds there are actually two of them online at 4:15 on a weekday morning?
