[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

English (Canadian) is my native language. I also used to be fairly good at French but it's deteriorated significantly. I'm also learning Japanese and Korean.

[Nicole]

English, Portuguese and a little of German XD

[Sydney]

I speak english, and a good amount of Swedish.

[Mohmammed]

My first language is Arabic and my second is English and soon I will start going to a school to learn Korean!!

[Sydney]

Oh cool! I love the alphabet of Korean! It is very simple, and makes sense! And you also speak the language of my favorite alphabet, Arabic!

[rzells]

I think it's safe to say I've mastered English grammar. I know many Spanish words and I can understand a little Spanish.
I can read Hebrew a little and I listen to X Factor Israel to listen to Hebrew conversations.

[Jenny]

I'm fluent in German, English and Swedish. I'm currently learning Icelandic, Danish, Dutch and Spanish. But I want to learn as many languages as possible.

[Natasha]

Some of these language combinations are so interesting! I'd love to know why/ how some of you learnt the languages that you know, especially all the more obscure ones like Icelandic and Korean (which at least seem obscure/ random to me hehe). I like how where you're from can influence the languages you learn, depending on your country's situation and what they teach in schools lol.

[Jenny]

@Natasha yes Icelandic is one of the exotic languages. Without the Internet it wouldn't be possible for me to learn it, the University of Iceland has an incredible language learning site. And I'm learning it because of my Scandinavian obsession.

[Lyly]

My native language is a English based creole called Crucian, and of course standard English, learning French and hopefully Spanish after. Very far of in the future I want to try my hand at either Korean, Urdu, or Portuguese.

[Sydney]

@Natasha I'm learning Korean from a free online textbook. I really like it and it even has free audio attachments for pronunciation. Here's the link :) http://www.koreanfromzero.com

(By the way, the site is a little messed up at the moment, but just hit "download PDF" to get the book.)

[Sydney]

@Jenny could you post a link to that language learning site you mentioned? It sounds like something that would interest me :)

[Jenny]

@Sydney sure: http://icelandiconline.is/index.html

[Anastasia]

In addition to English, I speak Finnish, some Swedish and a tiny bit of German. Also, I'm kind of learning basic Irish, have been wanting to learn more Quenya (High-elvish), and there are a bunch of other ones I'd love to know. ^^

Has anyone heard about Duolingo, by the way? It's a fantastic place to learn new and revise what you've learned. There are new languages coming all the time, though the selection is quite wide already. Come and visit us! And if there's someone here who is familiar with the place, message me and we can be buddies!

I use Duolingo! At the moment, I am only using it as a supplement to my Spanish, but I intend to use it for more languages in the future. Unfortunately, it does not carry courses in Russian or Korean, which are the other two languages I am working on. However, I really like the app as a whole!

[Hedgehog Power]

If you are interested in Korean here are two great resources that I've used: http://www.howtostudykorean.com/

Wow, thank you! I just checked out those websites, and they look great! I bookmarked them. You can bet I'll be adding them to routine ;)

[Buffy]

German and English. I'd love to find some tandem language partners in this group for discussions.

Here's a bit about that:
