White Raven Posted May 29, 2025 Posted May 29, 2025 Oui, c'est magnifique, la langue chinoise est très difficile! 28 minutes ago, Snake in the Grass said: I speak French as native, and English and Chinese Mandarin both fluent. 你也会中文的话请跟我说一声,最近没有多少机会用普通话交流。 For work, i'm catching up with German and Italian which i studied when i was in school, but for the moment both at low level. I had some conversational Dutch when i was a kid for family reason but same level as my level in German and Italian. 1 1 Quote

Look, I had a Portuguese exchange student at university, and honestly, when he started speaking, I found it hard to understand him hahaha. Portuguese people speak much faster and tend to leave out certain sounds. 1 Quote

It's slightly different when it comes to pronunciation and accent. Also some words differ. Although I think it looks like they are more similar now, nowadays. 2 Quote

JohannBaptist Posted May 29, 2025 Posted May 29, 2025 Poutine ftw @dju German as mother tongue. Then English (quite good) and French (ok). I also learned a bit of Arabic at university, but I've forgotten everything ? At the moment I'm trying to learn Brazilian Portuguese. 3 Quote

SeNNy Posted May 29, 2025 Posted May 29, 2025 English and Turkish! I also took 5 years of Latin many moons ago but language atrophies over time if you don't use it so I don't remember much LOL 3 Quote
bbTripped Posted May 30, 2025 Posted May 30, 2025 I only speak english and pitiful amounts of spanish (enough to basically not die if I ever went to Mexico.) I have multiple languages with a ton of points on duolingo but I'm not even remotely close to fluent in any of them. Pretty sure the app is a scam lol. Sucks being a dumb American. ? 1 Quote
Sisje Posted May 30, 2025 Posted May 30, 2025 Flemish (Dutch) and English fluently (can always be better though) Knowledge of French : 8 years of French in school, can still read it and understand if I try but no way I'm having a conversation in it, I don't like it German: 2 years in school and hoped to maintain it with Duolingo until they changed the app and I don't like how it works anymore Spanish: learned through Duolingo so certain sentences and words I understand but it's actually a bit more complicated than I expected Estonian: learned a few sentences by friends who played ET, Aitäh Interested in getting better in Spanish and maybe learning Arabic, sadly any language is hard to maintain when you don't use it hence only being fluent in 2 and not nearly as good as I'd like it. Was hoping to become a translator one day... still seems like a fun thing to do but will probably never happen. 5 1 Quote
