Hello,
Just wanted to know how many REGULAR visitors here speak other languages. I'm just curious. If you could post what other languages (besides English) you speak. (Also if you speak non-American English this would be interesting to know.) Please just post real quick for me. Thanks. Myself: German Spanish. Lava

If you could post what other languages (besides English) you speak. Russian, French, German, Odenwald-Franconian (in ascending order) Myself: German Spanish. Where in the world do they speak German Spanish? Must be somewhere on the Baleares ... Jens

Lava German (reasoably fluent although I don't write it very well) French (useful knowledge - read it better than I speak it) Dutch -(useful knowledge - read and understand it better than I speak it) At one time I could get by in Spanish, but not so well now because I haven't used the language much for a few years.

I do speak a little american english As for the rest it depends what you mean by 'speak' I cant carry only a conversation in any other language (except a very simple one in French) But can follow a business conversation in: French German Italian Scandinavian (they all sound the same to me and I seem to know what they are saying)
