OT Poll - do you speak any languages besides English?

P.S.  I don't remember most of my dreams.  The only dreams I remember don't involve language.  I am usually flying or falling.

 Nope. I once started learning Spanish to enhance my job skills, but I will never go to Mexico or Spain or South America, so there's no point. The only other language I like is Italian, but I'd have no occasion to use it except for one trip to Venice, so again, there's no point.

I'm in love with English. My close relatives all speak at least one other language, but I'll stick with the one I love. 

eta: I speak Bureaucratese and Medicalese.

I speak French (not a lot--enough to get by if needed, but I couldn't hold a lengthy conversation) and I can speak Hebrew/Yiddish by rote. Again, that's all stuff that has been memorized, and not conversational. But I'm working on that. I'd like to be fluent.

I don't dream in foreign languages, but sometimes I do dream in "silent movie".

Well my grandpa always told me to learn to say all the following phrases at least in Spanish, French and German:

1. I am an American
2. I don't know how to speak _______ (language)
3. Where is the embassy?
4. Where can I find some food?

So I know how to say all those things in those languages.

Aside from that I speak a good bit of Russian, although I am far from fluent (I know enough to get along well with Baltimorean taxi drivers who are overwhelmingly Russian for whatever reason) and I have such perfect annunciation of the Cyryllic alphabet that I got a job once reading newspapers in Russian to a blind man who did not speak English. That was an interesting job.

If it counts, I speak Ebonics (or African American Vernacular English as the PC's call it these days). My mom was pretty passionate about using proper English and good diction but at heart I'm a hood girl. So that's how I speak when I am being most natural.

I know a lot of Spanish--my husband is of Mexican descent and but I don't speak a lot of Spanish around his family ( I learn alot more because they are free to say whatever they want when they think I'm not listening)--lol !!

 I only speak English am taking Spanish courses in school right now.................My parents are WEst African so they speak Yoruba and Engli**** is like an African UniVision when they have to speak to each other.........

My most fluent foreign language is Pig-Latin, and reading backwards......   dubious skills, to be sure, lol...   Actually, since I used to travel for work, I speak bits of Japanese, Russian, French, Spanish,Portugese,  Chinese, German, bits of ASL along with some others....not fluently  but enough to get my around the towns and find food and transportation.

I used to.

When I was a child, we lived in Chicago, and my paternal grandmother and her mother took care of my brother and I each day while my mom managed the rooming house DGM and DGF owned.  They spoke a German dialect, and I was bilingual until we moved to the suburbs, and the teachers insisted I speak only English.  However, when we visted family in Germany my senior year in high school (so a dozen years later), I understood everything that was being said, but I couldn't put together the language to speak it.  However, my cousins understood English better than they spoke it, so they would speak German and I would answer in English, and vice versa.  It was quite entertaining.

Then in high school, I took Spanish, and thanks to friends who were primary language Spanish speakers, I was fluent in both colloquial and formal Spanish.  Lost that in college, when I was in central Illinois where notoby spoke Spanish.  However, I can still fluently say the words in Spanish print.  I just have no idea what I'm saying!

Too funny! When I was actively interpreting, I used to dream in sign alllllll the time. It was just second habit. I haven't interpreted in a few years, but I'm still fluent enough to hold conversations and used it with both my children. I haven't dreamed in it in a while though.
