Bilingual, or multilingual?
I'm still struggling with English, anyone speak two, or more languages?

It's about like this:

I too speak English and Afrikaans however my reading and writing of Afrikaans is better then my spoken Afrikaans for the same reason as Mr. Badger
I send and receive written letters emails texts etc many times a day from family and friends in Africa. Just not as frequently a spoken conversation

I picked up enough German to know when Ready was talking about me.
Turns out, it was pretty often...

I used to be able to speak and understand street Farsi, Pashto and Arabic and was semi-fluent in French. My Dad spoke 9 languages, all with a Colorado accent. Today I struggle w/ english, especially as used on the internet.

English and a little Mandarin Chinese. Used to be better but not many folks to practice with around here. My grandson is 2 years 8 months and speaks English and Russian. His Mother is from the Ukraine and only speaks to him in Russian, so he is a native speaker in both. Now his day care has him counting to 20 in Spanish, so who knows. His Mamma speaks that too (she is fluent in 6 languages)
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

I can hold my own with French, so long as they don't talk too fast.
