| Hi I speak 6 languages English, Arabic,Bengali, Hindi,Urdu,Punjabi, I learned most of these languages when I was 9 years old when I took a 3 week trip to East Pakistan with my father where I got malaria which made me very ill and took almost a year to recover which meant in those days I could not travel back to the UK and the only way I was going to be able to communicate while I was there was to learn the languages they spoke. Salam Alaikum I've also been known to speak a type of freanch ........ not allowed on forums |

| I speak English, I was once fluent in German - and it does come back to me when I hear or speak German. Some french, and I am pretty good at Bulgarian - I am always getting compliments on my Bulgarian, people say that they have never heard a Brit speak such good Bulgarian. I have been told by a Bulgarian friend that my Bulgarian (including the grammar and pronunciation!!) is 90% correct. That'll do for me!! |

| Well done Esta. I speak bad Bulgarian but understand quite a lot. Also speak German, French and Greek but not fluently and it takes a while for it all to come back. Still not bad for my age I guess. Can use salutations in Italian and a little Spanish because we had a multilingual clientele in our Greek beach bar. Just nice to be able to communicate. |

| i have always thought sign language should be taught in schools rather than french. it is of more use. |

I speak a bit of sign, not all the shortcuts but I do know the alphabet and a few shortcuts. This mainly came about because my Mother is blind and one of her best friends was deaf, so I had to be the middle man! |
