[umiman]

English, French, Mandarin, Cantonese, Bahasa Melayu, Japanese.

[Asheron]

Dutch ( mother language ), English ( very fluently ), German ( somewhat fluently ), French ( very fluently ) and a few glimpses of Russian.

[PTTG??]

Jai parles tres, tres un pu frances.
As, no doubt, you can tell from the American phonetic spelling.
I also speak American, English, Canadian, and (though not fluently)Australian, oh, and I'm about half competent in Spanglish.
Finally, I am starting to be able to read Dwarven, though only a few words ('Dagger', 'Ale', and so on)

[Armok]

English, Swedish, C++, Linoleum, Spanish.

English is the language I prefer, and speak 100% fluidly, I have a heavy ascent I think (cant remember actually having heard myself) but I have been told I sound like a mad scientist so thats ok.
Swedish is my native language.
C++ I have been programming in for several years, but I cant say I'm extraordinarily good at it.
Linoleum I discovered very recently, but I find it so intuitive it feels like I've been thinking in it since before learning Swedish. (could be that my understanding of it is fey-mood fuelled, and will pass)
Spanish I know a little, but not at all enough to actually speak much, and I have probably forgotten most of even that.

[Dwarfaholic]

Finnish, fluently.
English, fluently, having lived in the States during my childhood.
French, well, best in my class, which is not that much. (PTTG??, it's written "Je parle un peu de francais", with a funny squiggle under the 'c')
Swedish, taught in the school, also very well.
Basic Klingon, long forgotten.

[Aqizzar]

Man, I feel like a dope.  I don't even speak English all that well, though I have a better grasp of British English that a Texan has a right to.

If you throw some Spanish at me I'll get the gist of it, and if you give me a minute and a dictionary I'll give you a response.  Beyond that, I'm wasted.

[popers]

Well, If I were to boast about my linguistic abilities, I'd say I'm a fully qualified translator in English, Russian and Polish. I'm trying hard to learn Chinese, but it's dwarvenly insane.

And yeah, I speak dwarven as well.   

[Sean Mirrsen]

English and Russian here. I might wriggle my way out of a conversation in German, but wouldn't count on it.

[Cthulhu]

Fluent English, and just enough Spanish to look like a grade-A douche.

I feel inferior.

[Idiom]

I speak Gibberish.

[Awayfarer]

English (native language)
Spanish (solomente un poquito)
Japanese (A few basic phrases. Just started learning.)

The DM for my online D&D game is a Canadian who lives in and teaches English in Japan. He tells me there's a joke there that goes something like this...

Q: What do you call someone who speaks two languages?
A: Bilingual.
Q: What do you call someone who speaks three languages?
A: Trilingual.
Q: What do you call someone who speaks one language?
A: American.

[SHAD0Wdump]

American.
English only.

That joke is spot on.

[Fishersalwaysdie]

My Eurofag language that I'm not telling you about, English quite fluently enough, and learning German( know the basic grammar, but my vocabulary is of no substance)

[Osmosis Jones]

I also speak ... (though not fluently)Australian

Aussie strine is easy. Just replace come on with carn, chav or redneck with bogan, flipflops with thongs, beer bottle with stubbies, short shorts with stubbies, good with bonza, awesome with beaut, tosser with drongo, and all other profanity with bugger, and you're halfway there.



W.r.t. the OP, I speak English (Australian), learnt a very little Japanese and Italian in school (which I promptly forget), and can speak about 20 mangled words of Polish, the most useful of which is "Yastum niet gwodny, babcia!" (At least that's what it sounds like to me, I have probably bastardised that horribly).

[PTTG??]

Something, not, something, Grandma?
