Isn't it nice if a person speaks several languages? There was a Filipino hero who speaks several language, Dr. Jose Rizal, our national hero.
In my case, I speak Waray, Cebuano, Tagalog and English. I would love to learn Thai, India and Chinese but monetary and time doesn't allow me to do so. I also would love to learn French and Spanish.
What about you neighbors, how many language do you know?

wa, you are really my hero, I can't express my admiration on you any more. Actually, I am a language lover and I am eager to acquire several languages, which may be nice and cool. To be honest, I am a Chinese, and I just understand English and a little French which was once my second language. And I plan to learn French,Japanese, Korean as well as Spanish. Of course, time is limited and I would kill time to do it .

I would love to learn Chinese! There is a private school offering Chinese lessons in my hometown but time doesn't allow me to do it. My monetary situation doesn't allow me as well. There are several Chinese and India people in my hometown so it would be advantage for a local like me to understand their language. I am excited when I can learn the language.

As far as I know Jose Rizal,the national hero of the Philippines,know how to speak 23 languages more or less.I am not very certain though,but I am pretty sure its about that number.
I can now speak only just three languages namely Filipino,Kapampangan and English.I am now trying to learn Japanese.I would also be glad to learn Chinese.It is very good to know many languages because it enables us to communicate with other people deeply.
