Which languages do you speak and on what level are you?
>>
English
like maybe 5 or 6 right now, my dude
>>
inglish and italian at great level
>>
Polish, English, Latin - Expert

Afrikaans and Arabic - Learning
>>
Portuguese native
English basically almost native
German B1
Spanish because it just goes by extension

I want to learn French someday
>>
Me:

>Dutch
native
>French
near native; if I'd get a short immersion I would become native
>English
nearing native
>German
B1, can understand everything. Have issues with the grammar
>Spanish
A2, can read everything. Speaking and listening goes harder
>>
>>72218887
Wow, speak Latin for me please. No insults, be gentle, it's my f-first time.
>>
>>72218815
Arabic. I can speak it like any native
>>
>>72218887
Waarom leer je niet gewoon Nederlands?

>>72218922
B1 ? Hättest du Deutsch in die Schule?
>>
>>72219036
Yep
>>
>>72218950
>A2
>can read everything

Get out of here you lying little shit
>>
>>72218887
I read over the Latin. How did you become an expert? I had 6 years of classical Latin in high school; 4 hours per week. But it's hard as fuck. I can not speak it, it's just too difficult. Latin did gave me a serious edge on romance languages though
>>
I speak only Russian. Pretty great, I can into a local dialect and I've read tonnes of books.
>>
>>72219036
Afrikaans is a lot easier (ie time consuming) and I can still communicate with most Dutch speakers. Apparently Afrikaans is what most Dutch kids speak up to a certain age.
>>
>>72219121
It's true. Having Latin in high school does that. Italian and Portuguese are also doable for me

>>72219168
Yeah the grammar is easier. The kids thing is a lie though. Certain Dutch dialects will sound more familiar to Afrikaners than the standard Dutch from Amsterdam
>>
speak english,
few words/phrases in french,
leaning spanish (complete beginner)
>>
>>72219136
>How did you become an expert?
I started learning it when I was 13, continued throughout high school and I spent 3 years in the seminary where I was required to learn it (also picked up some basic Greek). I continued learning it after I left/discerned out of seminary.

>>72219312
>The kids thing is a lie though
Meh, at least it will give me a better start when I try to learn Dutch later on. I'll try to focus on Arabic for now.

How do you like Spanish so far? I've been thinking of starting it in a few years.
>>
English - Native
Portuguese - Proficient, I'd say rather close to fluency
Spanish - Proficient. Ever since I put that in the backseat for Portuguese, it's become a little more difficult for me to speak.
Korean - Half an elementary schooler's level, enough to understand kpop tweets though kek

I want to seriously move toward French next, and choose a dialect of Spanish to study to make that move toward fluency.
>>
ب
>>
>Bulgaria
native
>English
maybe C2, too lazy to take an exam to get a certificate
>German
A2 at best

I feel kinda stupid for not speaking more languages.
>>
>>72219506
Y-you're a priest??
>>
>>72219930
Why did you start learning Portuguese? What a weird choice
>>
>>72220193
It wasn't really much of a choice. I fell into it.
>mom is brazilian
>grow up in whitebread town so refuse to speak it, but understand it fine
>decide to take Portuguese as a language elective in uni, it's actually fun af
>move to a city with a large population of Brazilian tourists and get a job in sales, so I'm constantly speaking Portuguese as one of the only speakers in my store

I disliked the language and now I think it sounds beautiful, haha.
>>
>>72220331
What's ur mum's last name tho
>>
>>72220373
Oliveira
>>
>>72220398
Nice. I think Brazilian Portuguese sounds amazing in song and poem, even better than European Portuguese in that regard. But that's just me, don't tell the other tugas because they're autistic.
>>
Spanish, English, German (B1 level though) and I'm learning Italian because I have dual nationality and I don't know the language.
>>
>>72218815
Obviamente hablo castellano.
Avei añeekuaa guaranime.
Also english, of course.
Je avec parle un petit peu de francais.
Und jetzt lerne ich Deutsch.
>>
>>72220468
I haven't had much luck with BR music but I've really come to love fado. I think PT music is more beautiful sung, but BR more beautiful spoken.
>>
>>72220550
I really like bossa nova and brazilian jazz in general. It's way better than when it's sung in english imho m8
>>
>>72220604
I actually like bossa nova more as instrumental music. But you're right, bossa nova in English is plain retarded.
>>
>>72220707
I don't like much jazz in english desu. Do you like french jazz? I love me that shit.
>>
>>72220736
I haven't listened to much to much French jazz. I actually listen to a bit of American jazz, but once again the brunt of it is instrumental. I'm a big fan of John Zorn's breadth of work.

If you're ever stateside there are always jazz festivals going on everywhere if you care about them, very easy to find one.
>>
>>72220847
We have jazzfests here too. They're decent for "forgotten country" standards.
I see you're more of a rock dude.
>>
>>72218815
>Greek fluent
>English fluent
>Italian Advanced
>Icelandic Advanced
>Hebrew Intermediate
>>
>>72220940
Big on kpop actually, hence the foray into the koreaboo language kek.

Portugal could be doing much, much worse. I've been wanting to visit for a few years. I'm going back to school and if I plan to pursue something language-related doing a semester in Portugal doesn't seem that bad.

I mean, I've been to Brazil. How bad can Portugal be?

It's fine, it's just sort of forgotten. A land stuck in the 70's-80's you could say. Except most people know how to use Google Chrome (but that's about it)
