How many languages can you speak?

I can speak Arabic (and English) fluently

I would love to be able to speak Spanish/Italian fluently (GCSE doesn't get you very far)

English and French fluently.
Russian was initially my first language, but I've since lost tongue. (I can understand it though).

And trying to self-teach myself Korean, Chinese and Japanese. (like a boss 8D)

... I took GCSE Spanish and got a C. Go figure.

Lol, thanks! My mother can speak much more, and some of my friends know how to speak like 5 interchangeably. Makes me feel like a n00b.

Well English is my first language, then I got at A at French GCSE. I've also done an ASSET course in Mandarin Chinese, and am currently doing one in Japanese.

English
Gujarati - mother tongue
Hindi - same(ish) as above
German - A2 level, hoping to continue to develop my German skills at university - not too sure how though :colondollar:

French - GCSE level - so at conversational level (with a 5 year old :tongue:

)

Fluent in English, Dutch and German. Trying to become fluent in Mandarin, Russian and French.

German and Dutch are quite similar, and being Dutch in blood, it wasn't hard to pick it up.

I found out I had a flare for languages, so I'm trying to learn as many as possible.

My Father is fluent in 9 languages, but being the head of Rotterdam Dock's Security Force, he has to speak most main languages. I think I get it from him.
