Do any of you speak another lanuage other than your mother tongue? I learned a bit of French but after getting a Grade 7 for my French Standard Grade, I gave it up and started learning Spanish, and luckily I am doing a lot better at it!

I voted yes.

My mother tongue is Spanish and then I supposedly can speak English and French, and now I'm learning Swedish

Would love to learn Japanese someday too

Yeah... Dutch is my mother tongue and I speak English, a bit German and a little bit French... All mandatory courses at High School over here.

I'd like to learn Spanish someday (well I'd like to speak every language in the world - that would be cool :P but quite impossible )

Don't know if it's technically classified as speaking, but I know some sign language. I'm not what's considered fluent by any means, or even good, but I could probably carry on a conversation with a deaf person if they had a lot of patience.

I can speak some Spanish. I've gotten very rusty though and really need a refresher course. The hardest thing to me about another language is hearing it. I can speak and write it, but understanding it throws me, which makes the knowledge pretty useless.
