    What Do You Speak?

    Let's see what languages you speak. I have a strange feeling that there is a very large proportion of Finnish-speakers around here. But please, don't turn this thread into a Suomithreadi.


    So, what languages do you speak?

    Speak is defined as you can be with a person who ONLY speaks that language, and hold a reasonably smooth conversation without too much Sign Language.

    EDIT:
    Darn! I forgot Italian..... sorry......

      English isn't in there coz everyone who posts here would, presumably, speak it.

              Brits are forced to learn a foreign language at school.

              60% of americans don't have passports. Go figure

                Finnish and English... then there's Swedish, what a horrible language... German, but only in small quantities and when supported by the vocabulary of English and Swedish.
