So I'm curious to see how many different languages are spoken by head-fiers. I know that the people here come from all over the place, but everyone uses english, so lets see how many other languages there are! I'll start by adding french.

I can speak english fluently at a professional level (w/e the "highest level" on wiki is for english speaking), I can speak spanish at a minimal/functional level (w/e the "lowest level" on wiki is for spanish speaking), and I'm on and off learning Hindi in my spare time (I only know a few words, and really need to go back and review + progress through it)

oh, and I can read basic german (read only) due to the similarities with english

I can speak English, Spanish and Hokkien. I can understand Burmese. I can barely get by in French.
