Topic: Languages

I was wondering how many people here know more than one language. It doesn't have to be entirely. Just a word or two from a language counts.

English
Spanish
Japanese
Arabic
Chinese
Korean
Russian
German
French


I'm even writing a list of the Japanese words I know because I won't be able to take a class till Highschool.
Question, do you say Russian backwards "Car Drives you" or is it just a Smirnoff Joke?

I know a tiny smidgen of Spanish, enough to get me in a lot of trouble apparently. If they speak slow enough I can pick out a verb or two.
I know some French, mostly cuss words. (I have French Canadian family)

Well, since a word or two counts...

English (Of course)
Italian
French
Spanish
Japanese
Chinese
Russian
German
Arabic

Do made up languages count as well? Like ones from movies and books?

-English
-Latin
-French
-Italien
-Japanese
-Chinese
-Greek
-I can read I minute amount of Hebrew
-Spanish
-jibbrish

I used to be able to speak Klingon.

English
Huttese (not enough to speak right, but I know some words and sentances)
German (I can say "Silent Night" but I forgot the rest of the lyrics, and I can say "Do you speak german?" like that'll help?)
French ("Do you speak french?" is about all I know, and a swear word too)
Spanish (slightly, I forgot most of what I used to know)
Ewokese (I can sing the Ewok Celebration Song from memory and know what pretty much all the words mean, and I know a handful of regular words)

For some languages that are written I can pick out enough of what they say to make sense of the general idea. Like on foriegn sites, if it's something somewhat similiar to English I can pick it out.

English, German, some French, c+ and c++ computer languages. In that case in one or two words count then Spanish, Japanese, Vietnamese, Russian, Italian, and Greek.

English
Hungarian
Polish
German

French
Mando'a

I have a basic working knowledge of Spanish and a touch of Italian, French, and Thai. Assuming of course, a word or two still counts.

English
French (Enough to slowly converse)
Japanese
Chinese
Mando'a
German
Russian

One word in Leet

And I think you shouldn't have said that one or two words does count. This list would be alot shorter if it would just not count.

O YEAH!! I FORGOT!

I guess I put the made up languages I know up here too, since they seem to be accepted as well...

Cybertronian (There used to be a site for this, but it's gone now)
Ewok

I even made up some languages as well, but those don't really count I guess.

Interseting collection of languages Thylacine! Where did you learn them all from?

Oh, yeah I can write in 1337, and I know html if computer languages count.

I agree, I don't think I could ever learn Tusken.

Where does one learn Tusken? Mando'a you can order the book from Karen Traviss's website but Tusken?!

Just yell "Aueuaaaa Aueuaahaa" alot and shake your gaffi stick at people =P

Most of the languages I only know one or two words in, though. Alas!

Actually you can learn some Tusken from Ben Burtt's book The Galactic Phrase Book and Travel Guide, it's where I learned Huttese and Ewokese.

I got that Star Wars Phrase Book, which has Tusken, Ewok, Bocce, and Huttese in it, and from various other websites. I find that Langmaker is a pretty good site to search for languages.

Tusken hurts your throat though, so I don't recommend speaking it too often.

Well, here's mine, counting made-up languages.

Spanish
French (cuss words and a few basic lines.)
German (cuss words)
