I´m pretty lame in my native language. I think that zero is also a number. :whistling:

I'm learning Middle welsh! But yeah.. it's a dead language so I won't be able to speak it to anyone but I can read manuscripts!

 

And this year I'll start a course Irish gaelic, and I'm hoping to learn modern Welsh too someday. And maybe Breton. And Scots gaelic is on my wishlist too..

My native language is german. I speak english (fluently but for sure there are some mistakes from time to time), a little bit italian ( i was working a summer long in italy, i learned a lot there) and french. French is my favourite one. It is magical sometimes. I just love the language. I think because of Celine. I dont know. I started learning french 2 years ago. Now after 2 years i work in france and it works pretty well. I want to speak perfectly. I have a work contract (just a little job) until april 2011. Day by day i want to learn more.

 

I love to speak :giggle:

It's so sad by the way, that languages die and disappear. :( Different languages are such a richness!! That's why I think everyone should appreciate their mother tongue a lot, in addition to learning as many other languages as possible as well! :lol:

Darf ich mein schwarzes Herz verschenken?

Darf ich für mich selber denken?

My native language is English. But I speak English, French, and Spanish. I'm learning Croatian cuz my babysitter is Croatian.

You'll never see the courage i know. It's colours richness won't appear within your view. I'll never glow the way that you glow. Your presence dominates the judgements made on you.

 

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights. The shades and shadow undulate in my perception. My feelings swell and strech, I see from greater heights. I understand what I am still too proud to mention to you.

 

You'll say you understand. But you don't understand. You'll say you'd never give up seeing eye to eye. But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie.

 

You'll never touch the things that I hold. The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own. You'll never feel the heat of this soul. My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown.

 

But as the scenery grows, I see in different lights. The shades and shadows undulate in my perception. My feelings swell and strech, I see from greater heights. I realize what i am now too smart to mention to you.

 

You'll say you understand. You'll never understand. I'll say I'll never wake up knowing how or why. I don't know what to believe in. You don't know who I am. You'll say I need appeasing when i start to cry. But never is a promise and I'll never need a lie.

This is cool to know what languages do the others speak on here.

 

My native language is Bulgarian. I speak perfectly Italian (as everyone who took a look at my introducing thread already knows), English and French. I'd like to learn Spanish and German, but I don't know if this is going to be in this life lol :)
