i am from belgium and i'm learning german but there's really a big problem with that language they only got agressive words so a butterfly become a smetterling in german and the way you pronouce is even more brutal but i dont hate germany they only got agressive words

I wouldn't call it aggressive... it's not so much the words, but the way they talk that makes it sound really harsh. I'm totally agreeing with that though!

well my native language would be swiss german, I started to learn french in elementary school so I'm fluent in that one and obviously I'm doing ok with english. Aside from that I know latin, some italian, some spanish, quite a bit of japanese, some romanian (as in the fourth official language of switzerland) and very few words in finnish. Oh and german of course! I love learning new languages :)

I can speak spanish fairly well. I am currently learning Korean. And I know some German and Romanian. That's about it, I guess. My main goal in lid is to learn as many languages as I possibly can!

My root language is german. The first foreign language i've learned at school was french (barely can talk) 2nd was english (fluent but not that good). 3rd latin (only remember a few words). I also know some russian and italian words. When someone talks spanish, italian or dutch, i unterstand him/her but cannot answer :P
...and i can write my name in japanese an chinese letters

My first language is Canadian English (I say that because my words and pronunciation are different tgan that of an English speaker from a different country) but I have been taking French classes for seven years now. I am a tad rusty because of summer break but still je peux parle le français.
