I speak (in order of fluency): English, Hebrew, Esperanto, Spanish, and Russian. The last two are definitely going through lots of work and practice, so stay tuned! First two are pretty much fluent, and Esperanto is good enough to be sort-of fluent.
@ShneurZ Amazing! I guess that makes you a polygot. Which is the hardest to learn?
@comfortableNight4463
I think I still have lots of work before I can be a real polyglot, haha. I think Russian was definitely hardest to learn! Six grammatical cases, up to eighteen different ways to say every adjective, and verb conjugations that are often not so regular are really hard! What language(s) do you speak or are learning?
@ShneurZ Oh Russian definitely sounds hard. But keep going! You got this! I know English, Sinhala, a bit of French, a bit of Arabic and I'm currently learning Georgian
Georgian seems like a challenge! I love the writing though.
I can speak English, Hindi and two of the regional languages of India: (Marathi & Konkani) and I can speak a bit of Japanese but I'm yet to acheive fluency there.
@richsloth29 Well done! Good luck on learning Japanese! U got this!
Thank You 🥰
@richsloth29 You are most welcome!
Bilingual squad :) korean and english
@sunnyWriting4806 Amazing! Well done!
English, German and currently learning Japanese.
I also know Latin, but I wouldn’t say I can speak it
@LiaMaria666 Thats amazing! Wow latin, im impressed. What made you want to start learning latin?
@comfortableNight4463
English as my first language, Finnish as my second after moving here. I don't learn languages easy, so being surrounded by it has helped learning my second one.
@OneErased Nice! Yes, absolutely. Exposure to a language definitely helps in learning it.
I speak English,hindi,marathi and I am learning German and japanese. I also love literature of different languages. I read them in English.
And I also speak a dialect which is not available in written form.
@agreeableBlueberry7426 Wow. That's amazing. Its a lot of languages! Which was the hardest to learn?
I think japanese is hard for me compared to german
@agreeableBlueberry7426 oh yes I could see why. Whole new letters and everything.
@agreeableBlueberry7426 Good luck! You got this!
@comfortableNight4463 I speak Bahasa, English and Chinese. Currently learning and studying Korean, Japanese and Thai.
How do you find Thai? Is it difficult? I've heard learning the writing system can be challenging. I'm also learning Japanese and sort of Korean. Which is your favorite out of the three you are currently learning?
I speak English, Spanish, some French, some Portuguese, and I'm learning Japanese (and maybe Korean). In the past, I've studied Mandarin, German, and Russian, and also a bit of Dutch, Cantonese, Icelandic, and Hebrew.
@Smily1225 Wow. That is a lot of languages. You are amazing! What was the hardest to learn? I wanted to start learning german as well. Any tips?
@Smily1225 How about Russian? Does it hard?
I think Russian was medium difficulty, almost like how German was. I didn't get very far with either language but my Russian teacher was more fun than my German teacher and j liked the class more. I definitely have enough of a foundation in both German and Russian if I ever choose to study them again.
@comfortableNight4463
i speak two local languages which is entirely different Tagalog and Ilocano then English and I don't speak but I can understand Korean and Nihongo. I'm very interested in languages
@SilverLight07 Amazing! Which was the hardest to learn?
@comfortableNight4463
English is my first language, and I am pretty fluent in Spanish. I am also learning Arabic, along with some Italian and Russian. I know very little of the last two especially, but I’m trying to learn! Besides Spanish, Arabic is my favorite, but it is also VERY hard compared to the others. Someday I want to be a full polyglot!
@limegreen9775 This is great! I wish you luck on spanish. You got this! I also used to learn arabic when I was younger
