I was just poking fun. I don't mind really. I was just always confused as to why Americans felt the need to spell the same words differently.

Native language is Dutch and I do speak and understand a little bit of French and German, as long as it spoken to me slowly and clearly.

Albeit, what I've learned from people from Holland, is that they really have a penchant, like the British folk, to overuse the word 'kut', which is the equivalent of 'cunt'.

Might be the literal meaning, but I believe saying cunt in English is much worse than saying kut in Dutch (it doesn't contain as much 'charge').

Also, Dutch people love to swear with diseases, like cancer and typhus.

Turkish is the shit. That's, "so what," kardesh.

I speak German and English. You'd think I'd know Pennsylvania Dutch but I never found a use for it so I never learned it (since all the Amish where I live are bilingual). I want to learn Estonian with my wife since we want to move there once we earn enough money. Yeah, yeah they speak English and German and a bunch of other languages there but IDGAF, I want to learn Estonian.

In fact, I'm playing Assassin's Creed 2 in German at the moment. Too bad it only makes the voice overs German.

Um, that´s hard to understand, I guess you wanted to say that you need a german student, because he or she could do your german exam for you?
Correct version: Ich brauche einen deutschen Schüler, denn er oder sie könnte für mich meine Prüfung machen.

I speak drunken gibberish as well, and I know the odd cockney slang phrase because they're funny as shit. In all seriousness I would love to learn a new language, I don't have the patience with it and when I tried to learn Spanish it never really clicked. Some people pick up languages really quickly and easily and I envy those people. Saaadface :(

Also forgot Jamaica, Bahamas, and some other countries. To some extent, Singapore and the Philippines, but they speak their country's native languages as well as English.

No, but I was semi-fluent in Spanish for a short-while. I took 3 years of Spanish classes in high school and learned very much of the language. Unfortunately, I forgot it all over the summer.

Same thing happened to me with German! I had studied it in middle school, then over the course of the summer, most of the vocabulary just escaped my brain.

Now all I know is bits of it.

Yeah. I was actually on the verge of achieving fluency in the language. If I had continued my studies in Spanish and continued to learn new words, I'd likely be nearly(If not completely) fluent by now.

The language is not difficult to learn to be honest.
