    I speak English and I know a tiny bit of Spanish from High School. I think I've pretty much forgotten it all though. :p

    English and Mandarin is all I know. I wish I know 10 different languages though so I can easily travel around the world without any communication barriers.

    English and Chinese. With China and America being the top 2 countries, these languages are all you need to know to get somewhere in the future

    I'm American so I know English but I've also studied French and Italian. I'm a big big fan of studying other languages.. I think it's pretty awesome to be able to go into another country and speak with locals.

    I speak English fluently. My mother is fluent in French and I really wish she had taught it to me when I was younger. The only language I'm interesting in learning is Spanish, mainly because my boyfriend and his family speak it and it feels weird being the only one that doesn't.

    I once tried to teach myself Finnish, which would have been really fun except I'm soooo bad with languages. Took a year of Italian and a year of Japanese in University, barely remember anything from either of them

    Did you see the Discovery Channel program (or Learning Channel?) about this guy who learned Icelandic (and I mean fluently) in seven days? The guy supposedly is a Rainman-like savant, but he didn't seem very socially challenged. It was pretty amazing. After seven days, he went on an Icelandic TV talkshow and had no problem conversing with everyone.
