Hey all,
In an ever-globalising world, it is a fact that the ability to speak multiple languages is a benefit to yourself, your people, and your nation. It is a badge of pride to be able to claim the title of polyglot, and will inevitably aide you in a great variety of your life's pursuits.
And so I ask the people of DebatePolitics:
How many languages do you speak?
Which languages do you speak?
Are they learnt languages, or have you spoken them from birth?
Which languages would you like to speak?
Why do you want to learn said languages?
The poll was a bit tricky to make, and so I ask, on top of answering the poll, to also answer the questions I've listed above.
Cheers!
I'm surprised but also happy by how many people have cited Russian as a learnt language, or a language they'd like to learn. I've spoken Russian since birth (as well as French and English), but it's absolutely a useful language to learn. I've picked up passable German and Spanish from studies, but, alas, I doubt they'll ever be as good as my native languages. Still, they say that if you speak Spanish, Russian, English and French, you can go nearly anywhere on Earth and be understood, even if only rudimentarily. True world languages, those four.
I can speak some in French, but I'm only fluent in English. I'd love to learn a couple of languages, but I haven't gotten that far.

Does fluency in the language of love count?
That stuff's a tongue twister...Does fluency in the language of love count?
