Obviously everyone here speaks English, but what other languages do you guys speak, for the bi and trilingual people out there? I speak English and French.

Also sign language. American, Australian, and British English.

I forgot about sign language! I'm also learning that!

I speak English (obviously). I take Spanish for my world language and I go to Hebrew school, but I'm having a lot of trouble remembering the simple words I learn. I still now a bit of both languages. I also "speak" violin treble clef AKA music.
Music is the universal language!

Erm, British English and Australian are not different languages from English. They are different styles and different people use them, but they don't count as an entirely separate language.

Was that directed at me? If so, true. I speak English, and could probably communicate sufficiently with an Australian or a British person. I apologize if I offended you.

Spanish we'll sort of any way (sigh)

I'm fluent in English and Pig Latin, and I'm learning French.

I know a few Italian words picked up from my dad. I also know some Latin from church related things/anatomy studies.

@ Kitten: About Hebrew, same! I didn't know anyone else here was...

@ Kitten: That's why I know ancient Aramaic, too.

Cool! What's Aramaic?
Next year in Hebrew school I think I'm going to get combined with some kids who can't read or learn nearly as fast as me! I am not looking forward to it. Especially because one of the kids is super annoying.

Aramaic - that's the language the Gemara, the Talmud, is written in.
I'm not very good at Hebrew or Aramaic either. I can read it fine, but I don't understand much. Which means I don't do very well in the Hebrew part of school.

At our school we mostly don't focus on the meanings of the words- just reading the prayers.

I'm pretty much done with my first year of Spanish class, so I know the basics, but not a whole lot.
