Only English. I lived in Germany until I was 7.

My parents speak to me in German still.

How ever, I still can barely speak it

Haā€¦ Dreadful :joy:

@Zoe We have a German group home worker in my Group home. I do think there is a difference between German humour and British humour but she is a diamond. Sheā€™s lovely!

I do agree with you. German humour is kind of weird I think. And English humour can be quite dry. That might be the wrong word, not really sure how to describe it.

Thatā€™s good that sheā€™s alright. Always makes a difference when the home workers are lovely.

Sounds good

Typical American. I only speak English, with a very small touch of Spanish. I grew up in the rural South. We didnā€™t have many electives outside of band and shop.

Mostly just 1. English.

Oh, wait! I was able to communicate a good bit in 2. Italian with an Italian onceā€¦

Io capisco un po lā€™italiano, non molto bene.

Ah, and then there was the 3. German course in college. Ich spreche Deutsch nicht!

Working for so many Japanese companies, I really didnā€™t learn to speak much 4. Japanese. I suppose yes is Hai and no is Eeeeeyeh, or something like that.

  1. Mathematics is supposedly the language of science, and I lectured to college mathematics classes in the past.

If I start counting the parlance of specific fields I know, weā€™ll be at this all day. About 30 jobs in about 10 different industries, including legal software.

No, on my resume I maintain that I have only mastered one language, English.

English, German, and a handful of Yupik and Inupiat from when I lived in ā€œthe bushā€ of Alaska working a real job (a long time ago).
