Re: How many languages can you speak?
Depends what you mean by speak?
If you mean speak fluently then just one, English.
If you mean being able to hold a decent conversation then three more, French, Spanish and BSL (well you don't really speak sign language but you know what I mean)
And if you mean knowing bits and pieces then two more, Mandarin and Swiss German.
But if someone on the street asked me how many languages I speak, I'd say one... -

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)
I know French and German and Italian..up to GCSE :L Which isn't very useful. :/ -
