Unfortunately I can only speak fluently in english because there is no one that I need to communicate with that does not speak english. I took both spanish and german in school but lost them, all but a few phrases, because once again I have no one to speak with. I have traveled more than most around the pacific, to England, France and Germany. I have friends in U.A.E. I speak to occasionally. Only in France did they insist on speaking in French always:( even though they knew I only spoke in english.

I have worked with Russians, Ukrainians, Chinese, Phillipino, Hungarians and Dutch while employed as a software engineer, all software development is done in english to the best of my knowledge, and all of them spoke very good english so once again no need to speak any other language.

I am ashamed though I do not speak at least spanish because they are my very good friends. :oops:

French native, English & German Fluent. That's 3.

didn't count polish, 1-word sentences don't count as spoken language. One year or another I'll probably count a 4th one, when my growing daughter will teach me the language of her mom(and vice-versa).

It's a mixture of Aramaic(What the Phoenicians spoke) and Arabic, and with the new modern age theres a new language being spoken in Lebanon which isn't being recognized internationally called(in english) Frebanese which is a mixture of Lebanese and French, for example

everything underlined would be in Lebanese everything dotted would be in french
