Foreign languages

First topic message reminder :

Hello.

Seeing people speaking different languages, it motivated me to open this topic to discuss about languages.

How many languages and which ones do you speak. Yes I know, most people here speak English at different levels, but many people speak at least two languages

More, which language (s) would you like to learn or improve?


Personally, I'm not English. My mother tongue is French, but I have English family, my grandmother was British and one of my uncle got married with an English woman.

I began to learn English at age 9. In Québec, because we're surrounded by English territories, it's compulsory to begin English courses at this age. Then, playing RPG videogames helped me much improving my English and I always got nice results in English at school.

I knew that Editboard, which was only available in French one year ago, was about to get translated in foreign languages, putting English in priority, so when I discovered this board, there was still no mod, so I got a great opportunity to practice my English by moderating and helping people.

At age 17, I began collegial studies in Language Arts. In this program, I got extra English courses while I had the two compulsory ones. In the same program, I had Spanigh courses in four semesters. I would like to continue to improve my Spanish, but I still have no opportunity for it...

Finally, in the future, I would like to learn Japanese which fascinates me. I like the Japanese culture and I would like to have a trip in Japan


And you?

I speak English and Farsi (Iranian) extreemely fluently, I speak like French pretty fluently but not as well as English and Farsi, and I also speak some Spanish.
