LGBT How many languages do you speak?

Tomorrow I'm probably checking out the other gay church around here. Looking on the website, I noticed they have a "learn Spanish" class they teach. I wonder why a church would teach a language.

So how many languages do you speak?

    Shy Guy, I only speak English. Anyway, I am so happy that you are checking out another church. I hope you find a spiritual home.

    I use to be fluent in Spanish when I was little but when I started school they like made me speak English. Now I speak English and I'm learning Latin hopefully I'm gonna start French and Spanish soon. Many churches learn/speak different languages in order to reach out to third world countries.

    It's weird. I was a straight A student in Spanish @ school. Now, I haven't used it years but decided to pick it back up again for work. I figured a little brushing up and it would all come flying back. Man, I got the CD's, the book Spanish for Gringos, (sorta like those Cooking for Dummies, Excel for Dummies etc.) AND went to a 4 week night school refresher course. Nuthin'. Must be a dummy!

    English and French.

    I live in Canada so...

    ( And I have taken french for 9 years and will be in Quebec for 6 months)

    You'd think I'd at least know a couple words of either Gaelic, German or Cantonese but I don't even know one.

    Sadly my heritage doesn't survive. If I ever have a kid, we'd probably emigrate too and he or she won't learn a thing of french.

    Korean is my first language but i'm now better at English than Korean, so that's two. I don't really count spanish as another language, since i don't speak it fluently, only in school.
