So thankful I was born speaking English, because I would hate to have to learn it. :D As far as natlangs go I have some French, Japanese, and Spanish, plus I've studied Hebrew, Greek, and Hawaiian, also Ancient Egyptian and bits (mostly grammar) of many many others. I love languages but I tend to absorb the grammar of any given language and then move on before I've gotten enough vocab to make it useful, so... not so much with the speaking of most of them. :-\

Conlangs are my primary linguistic interest:
Esperanto (basics mainly)
Quenya (fluent) and Sindarin (somewhat) from LOTR, as well as Tolkien's other languages
D'ni from the Myst/Riven etc games - was pretty fluent at one point, bit rusty now
Not sure that I consider the Star Wars 'languages' to count, but I know bits of them
Klingon - the ugliest language ever invented, love it but only know a little
Atlantean - Marc Okrand's creation for the Disney movie, such little of it as there was :(
Al Bhed also doesn't count, but it's fun (and phonologically fascinating) :D
The Divine Language from Fifth Element - ehh I have mixed feelings about this one, but again, fascinating (in a train wreck sort of way, admittedly)

Not sure where proto-Indo-European fits in, but that is some amazing interesting stuff.

I'm forgetting some, but those are the main ones. I've also got several of my own languages I'm working on - ar-Medyan, Deyati, and some that aren't named yet.

True that! I have a list of roots & suffixed forms that I compiled for my own use.

Together with two of my friends, we've invented our own secret language. It's not that hard to learn, it consists of three words ;D

There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.

German (native)
English - good enough, though especially grammar is deteriorating by having to write a lot of very simplistic correspondence  :-\
Dutch - basic understanding
Trace amounts of Spanish and French

I've never really tried to learn any languages (until now, that is) so all I can speak are the languages live has thrown at me.

Dutch (official native language)
Limburg dialect (unofficial native language)
English
German

They also tried to force French upon me in school, but that didn't work.

Tekre

German (native language and my favorite, beause I'm not good at learning other languages xD)
English (I can chat with other people, but I don't want to know how much mistakes I make per sentence...)
French (Had it in School, but now I only know some words and very basic sentences.)
Na'vi (Much better than French, there are many things I have to learn but I'm becomming better!)
Spain (A very little bit, I started to learn one week ago.)


Since I started with Na'vi I see that learning other languages isn't that bad when I can do it like I want, in school I hated it. But know I want to learn more languages, especially Spain, Dothraki and Sindarin.

Tewtiiii, i didn't know that!
Ma Tekre, and i make many mistakes in English language, but i'm trying to learn from my mistakes! ;)
Na'vi language is very easy to learn for me, i can pronounce, write and speak with people! I'm learning Na'vi language since 2015! The first Na'vi word learned by me was "Tsaheylu" wich means "Bond"! :D
