English, and some what I call a mixed wad of Spanish and French. I studied Spanish for 6 years during Middle and High School but never used it then a 1 year of French in College and never used it. So now I have a very messy ball of language in my head and when I am SO sure that I know the right word, it comes out in the wrong language. I don't know if it's Spanich or Frenish! wink :p

I do manage to get my needs communicated after either the puzzled stare or the laughter stops!

Osomajor, i too started learning japanese, but had to stop when i started work full-time as i didn't have time to go to the lessons. (They were afternoon ones.)
It's a fascinating and lovely language, and they have two alphabets, one for informal and one for formal use. I fully intend to learn it when i get the time. (Probably when i retire!!!) smile

Sally-Anne – my brother has lived in Japan for 15 years and I first visited him there 3 years ago. For some reason it hadn’t crossed my mind that he would be speaking Japanese! I was so impressed when he started talking in this amazing language .. my little brother, talking pretty pictures! Amazing.

I can speak English, some Spanish (enough to get
along) and of course, Appalachian, the dialect of
Southeastern Ohio. laugh
