Language Learning / Bilingual / Polyglot Thread

[DenseDeerFather]

Oh sweet. A thread for me to necro.

Anyway, I speak Danish natively. Due to some family shit I can understand Norwegian and Swedish on a spoken and written level but fuck speaking it.

I'm writing in English. Self-explanatory.

I got training in German during my school years but I found it very hard to get down. Also got some basic bitch training in French and Latin.

Of languages I'd like to learn, the only one is currently Japanese. I am a weeb. I'll own up to that. There was a time when that list also included Russian, because I was born in Russia and thought could be fun, and Kpelle because of heritage shit and curiosity.

Now, it's just Japanese. I just haven't gotten to it though.....

I speak English very well as it's my native language but I do speak a fair amount of Spanish. I also speak a little Japanese and know a little bit of French. I also bought a book to learn Russian as well. I know all my Russian Cyrillic, all my Hiragana, many of my Katakana and a handful of Kanji. The reason I wanted to be fluent in these languages is mainly in respect for them but also to learn discipline, for the entertainment of it and understand them better. I've been to Mexico a lot and also went to Japan.
