Salaam. You know French better than Bengali!? Lol.

I can speak English, very fluently and comfortably, then it would be Bengali, fluent but with lots of English nouns (I'm sure that's common with a lot of British-born Asians), after that it would be Arabic. I can understand Punjaab and Urdu a bit, but I don't think I could communicate in it. I did French and Welsh in High School, today, I barely remember any of it except something about liking coffee and big pankcakes (hoffi coffi/regarde! une grande crepe!).
 
Salam Alaikum:

I'm a native english speaker, I know some Russian and I used to know a lot of sign language as my uncles were deaf mute, but from lack of use I've forgotten most of it. :(

I don't have an aptitude for languages so it's very difficult for me to learn. You all speak so many. :muddlehea mashallah :)

Inshallah, one day I will learn to speak arabic.

Wasalam,
Hana
 
:sl:

I speak danish fluently, english almost fluently, very little german, I can communicate with Norway-ppl and Swedish ppl and then I understand a bit arabic and somali.. But not enough to make a convo..

Me Malay and English(not so good). I learnt Mandarin for 1 yr but forgot 90% of it. I cant even recognise the character anymore. how bad. Some chinese office-mate will greet me in Mandarin

the best part is when chinese called my house speaking mandarin, I'll say "wo bu ming bai, wo shi Malairen, wo bu shi huayuren" - I dont understand, I'm a Malay, I'm not a Chinese. and I'll add "Zheli shi Malairen de jia" This is a Malay house. Of course the caller will get confused. Are u sure u don't understand? but u r talking in Mandarin with me.

Would like to know why so many people learnt Somali? What so ggod about it. I know French has become important, but why Somali?

I speak English (fluently). My Spanish is okay although I'm trying to improve (my grammar is horrific). I would love to learn Uygur, Turkish, Uzbek, Japanese, Farsi and of course Arabic :)
 
I speak Swedish and English (studied since 3rd grade in school) understand German (4 year at school) if I have to and a little, little French (studied just one year) and Norwegian and Danish also since they are quite similar Swedish. Can also the Swedish alphabet in sign language so I can understand and talk (but very slowly though) :)

I have planes to study some Arabic (for work purpose).

Är det någon som behöver hjälp med svenska språket i något läge får ni gärna höra av er till mig, studerar just nu till svensklärare. :)
