How many languages do you know ?

The official version is that I know three languages.
Then, as where I was born dialect is as complex as a non written language, my personal version is that I know four...

Hello, Mikinsmith:

I am 75 years old and still learning my native language, English.

They say that language study is good mental exercise, so my hobby is to study two foreign languages + English grammar.

1. I studied Spanish in high school in the 1950s!!! I can now read easier articles in a newspaper; I can now understood 80% of a TV newscast; and I can converse in Spanish, using far from perfect Spanish.

2. I started to study (Mandarin) Chinese in 1960. I still cannot speak it; I still cannot understand it. It's entirely my fault: I am too lazy to practice it. But I can read it a bit -- with a good dictionary. And I could write a letter in Chinese to someone -- although the reader would laugh to death at my mistakes.

P.S. I am sure that you already know this, but the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has a wonderful news website that reports the news in many languages. That's how I practice my Chinese reading.

Russian, Turkish, Azeri, French, English
I am learning Spanish and German

Tell us more, if you feel like it. Some of us would be interested.

There are lots of languages in the world. but few people in the world that able to know more than two languages. Basically, English is an international language. so most of the people are able to speak this language. But I am able to know only few Indian languages like as Hindi, English, Punjabi, Marwari, Gujarati and etc.

I belong to Rajasthan, India. In India people speak many types of language. Basically, I know and speak very well Hindi, English, Marwari and Punjabi also. But I am perfectly speaking Hindi and Marwari, because there languages are my state local language

I know four languages, English, Hindi, Punjabi and Little bit German.

English is my native language. I know three languages.
• English - Fluent
• Spanish - Pretty good
• Portuguese - Learning

I can speak in English, Mandarin, Malay, Hokkien, Hakka and Cantonese :O Gotta get impressed by myself. HAHA!

That's an ironic answer considering you really don't know it very well.

Does the question "How many languages do you know" really mean how many can you speak?
I would have answered with many. Not how many I speak, but how many I know exist like Latin, Swahili etc.
How many languages can you speak? I would have answered with "Four"
I know there is a difference in British and American English.
But that does not mean I can speak English.

I can speak Chinese,English,A little French.~~~

Я умею говорить по-русски. I also speak and read the english so 2 languages. I also read, print, and write script for the english and russian but I only know the old church slavonic and not the latin so I can't read US latin on dollars and other stuff... yet.
