What languages do you two speak? I was meant to book on a language course this week to brush up and maybe make some friends. Unfortunately I missed the deadline as I dithered so I guess I might do a beginner course in something new while I wait. |

I grew up in Belgium with two parents who worked for the EU, so I have been exposed to many European languages. I would say that I "speak" English, Dutch and French, but I can mumble a few sentences of Spanish, and I would rate myself as better than the average person who has never had a lesson in German, Italian or Swedish too. I can also do a bit of Japanese, and a microscopic amount of Hungarian. |

I've spent too much time with our Slavic cousins, so by now I can quite comfortably introduce myself, comment on the weather, and then ask where the hookers are and how much they cost whether you're in Prague, Krakow or Budapest. |

Update: I'm really enjoying it so far, partly because I did a lot of preparation beforehand so I wouldn't get lost which has given me the tools to really jump into the language. |

Chinese Mandarin. My favourite hobby, very soothing, nowhere near as hard as people think it will be (the grammar structure is so easy to get going with). |

I'm fluent in English and German, can fudge my way through Spanish and can understand some Japanese but as travel proved, cannot speak it. I can read Greek but do not speak or understand it. |

Something that learning a foreign language has taught me is how utterly shit our English education is. Knowing terms like superlative is super-duper important but we never get instructed on it in school and parents won't have a clue, instead the first time you start encountering the terms is likely when you're seriously studying a foreign language. |
