Easy question, right?
I speak five languages and I understand several more. I speak Dutch (native), English (second language), French (official language here in Belgium), Swedish (self taught) and German (also an official language, we have three). I take Latin and ancient Greek courses, so I understand those (we don't learn to speak them). Because of Dutch, I understand (and speak) Afrikaans, because of Latin and French, I can understand some Italian and Spanish and because of Swedish, I understand Norwegian and Danish. Of course, I'm not as fluent in every language. I have no problem expressing myself in Dutch and English, but I can't speak French that fluent and I lack a good base of Swedish and German vocabulary.
So what about you?
