My mother tongue is Telugu. I speak the same in my home. But I love Hindi and Sanskrit!

Language is very interesting and I have always been fascinated by language. My mother tongue is Visayan which is one of the major languages in the Philippines. Cheers!!

My mother speaks Dutch to me and my father speaks English. I've been raised with two languages. I speak more Dutch than English, because I see my mother more. But when I'm visiting my grandparents I speak English all the time. I'm lucky to have been raised like this. I never had any problems in school when we visited other countries. And I can easily get around on sites like these.

My language is English. I am American so my English does not sound like the English that is spoken in England. There language is more formal. We use a lot of slang. Words can mean different things because of the context it is used in.
