English is the only one I'm really fluent in.
I was studying Japanese for a while and still know a few Japanese phrases, but I dropped it and forgot a lot of what I learned, unfortunately.

Other than those two, I know a very small handful of French words (basically some colors and numbers) and a few Spanish numbers that nearly everyone knows (uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco...).

Yeah, I lived in Germany for about 4 months in 2008

My mom's first language is technically French, but she's spoken almost nothing but English since age 6 or so.

The only language that I can know is English. I used to know a bit of French since they teach it to you in school although as soon as I wasn't required to take French classes anymore I forgot everything .

I hope to learn Japanese someday... (first I have to figure out a good learning method ).

English is my fluent language, but my native language is Spanish.

At one point, I decided to stop speaking Spanish. It caused a few problems, like not being able to talk to my dad much (he only understands a very small amount of English), and later made me unable to confidently speak in Spanish anymore. I could still understand Spanish, due to my parents speaking to me only in Spanish, but I had trouble forming my own sentences. About 3-4 months ago, I had to take the place of my brother and tend to the store when my dad was tired or needed to go somewhere, so I was basically forced to speak in Spanish again.

I can still speak Spanish, but I probably have the vocabulary of an elementary school student.

I know English, a bit of Italian and Spanish, some minor Sign Language, and a tiny bit of Japanese. Nothing serious past English and Italian, though--I failed Spanish and ASL in high school and I only learned the Japanese I know from context clues; it's not enough to any point that I'd consider fluent or even reasonable, but there you go.

/☢/CAUTION/☢/

I AM SPANISH, I KNOW VERY ENGLISH!

Now seriously, I am more fluent in english than in spanish.

I know a little bit of japanese. Enough to read some of the stuff in Kirby's Adventure with a dictionary or understand the nightmare in dreamland's Kirby's quotes just fine. But most kanji leaves me completelly lost and I am unsure about writing.

Also becouse all roman languages are the same if you can understand the latin roots of some words you can undestand most of italian.

Oh not these.

French is my native language and I've been speaking English for quite a while now. In fact, I think that, at this point, people would believe I've known English since I was born (not speaking, because I don't get the chance to talk in English nearly enough for it to not sound weird)

EDIT: oh and I know a bit of Spanish, but bleh.

Swedish fluently.

English close to fluently. (Just need to get better at pronunciation)

And "I picked up some words in their rōmaji forms mostly from hanging out at boards and playing video games: Japanese"

English, and I took three years of high school French. Don't ask me to speak it for you though.

Language classes in school are the worse, IMO. I learned more on my own and from other people than I did when I took two years of Spanish.
