What languages do you guys know?
OP - March 19, 2010, 02:06 AM

I can speak English, some Gujarati and Hindi (and I guess spoken Urdu since I know Hindi), and I'm taking Second Year Spanish during school.

English, Urdu and Punjabi. I guess by extension I can also speak Hindi somewhat.

I used to be able to speak Spanish fluently but haven't spoken it in 6 years and have forgotten it all. I would like to learn Persian though one day.

I only speak English, unfortunately. I studied French and later Arabic at uni. I've forgotten most of the French, although I still remember bits and pieces. I am better at Arabic, but still don't know enough to have a conversation. I can read the alphabet comfortably, and I can pick out words and phrases when I hear others speak in Arabic. And I know enough to give directions to a taxi driver in Kuwait lol. But that's about it. I've been thinking of taking it up again because I really enjoyed learning it and I have a good start on it, and I would like to know a second language.

English, Spanish, some Brazilian Portuguese, and I can count to 10 in French!

So once again I'm left with the classic Irish man's dilemma, do I eat the potato or do I let it ferment so I can drink it later?

English, Bhs Indonesian/Malay (they are basically the same), some French, could pick up girls in Tagalog, and yell at people in Arabic.

Nah I'm kiddin. I speak Arabic and English. But I've lived my entire childhood in Canada, and I've been told by my friends and family that I make a lot of grammar mistakes when I speak Arabic. So I guess English is my strongest language.

Try making "grammatical mistakes" similar to the ones in the Qur'an, and see if they will correct you. If they do, insist that you are correct, and then later on show them specific verses from the Qur'an.
I remember the user "Al Razi" saying that he managed to deconvert one or two Muslims by making such deliberate mistakes.

English, Spanish and smatterings of German, Punjabi/Hindi, and Arabic.

I used to be pretty fluent in Spanish but haven't really used it in several years.
