[dimity_blue]

1. After your first language, what language would you most like to learn? (Say first language too)
English is my first language. I can speak a tiny bit of French but I'd like to be fluent in it.

2. Does your country have a second language? What is it?
England doesn't but Wales, Scotland, and Ireland do.

3. How many languages can you count to 5 in

I can count to 12 in German!

[dimity_blue]

You beat me as I only know up to 5!

I used to be able to count to ten in both French and German, but now I'd struggle to even get to five! Ah well!!

I can ask for the toilets in Spanish though! :D

[dimity_blue]

Which is extremely useful, IMO!

[leesa_perrie]

It was! :D

1. When my parents were still married, me and my siblings were all bi-lingual, English being our first language and Spanish being our second, since my father was Mexican. After their divorce, since we were no longer around any Mexicans or Spanish speakers, we didn't speak it, anymore, so of course, we lost it. I'm pretty bummed out about that, now. And in High School and College, I took French. I was pretty good at it and could even read and write it. But again, if you don't use a language with anyone over a long period of time, you lose it. I remember a bit from both languages, but not enough to carry on a conversation, sadly. I wish I'd have kept on the Spanish. If I had, I'd be Tri-lingual

I hope you get to travel one day. *hugs*

I can count to ten in ... um ... French, Latin, Greek, German, Spanish, and Japanese. I used to be able to count to ten in Hungarian, but I've forgotten about half the numbers. I can do 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and ... well, there's one that's especially fun to say but I can't remember if it's 8 or 9. It's pronounced "nyoltz!"

I love your reasons for visiting Egypt! I wish I could, too.
