So guys, I thought it would be cool to see what languages everyone spoke. For me:
1. English (duh).
2. Spanish (not fluent, but I know a lot).
3. French(enough to hold a conversation with someone who doesn't use complicated words).
4. Sign Language (I'm not deaf, but I am almost fluent).
5. Latin (I can read and understand a lot of words, but I have trouble reading complicated poetry and the like).
If there is something that is not on the list, please specify!

If I can say "live long and prosper", does that mean I can speak Vulcan?

English and Polish. I'm working on Spanish, but I don't pick up languages quickly. I may have to turn to Rosetta Stone.

I was trying to learn Dutch, but then I realized that I'm trying to learn Latin and French. 3 languages at the same time is too much.

Just out of curiosity, I checked Wikipedia.
The top 20 languages by the number of
native speakers are
- Mandarin
- Hindi
- English
- Spanish
- Arabic
- Portuguese
- Bengali
- Russian
- Japanese
- German
- Punjabi
- French
- Wu
- Javanese
- Korean
- Telugu
- Marathi
- Vietnamese
- Tamil
- Italian
The top 20
most spoken languages are
- Chinese
- Arabic
- Spanish
- English
- Hindi
- Portuguese
- Bengali
- Russian
- Japanese
- Standard German
- French
- Javanese
- Telugu
- Marathi
- Vietnamese
- Korean
- Tamil
- Italian
- Western Panjabi
- Urdu
Of course, there is no clear correlation between the number of speakers and the
number of the computer literates across these languages.
