do you know different languages? why or why not?

I had friends from Taiwan a while back and I taught myself Chinese to make them happy. I also learned French because my sister took it in school too. I know some Spanish, German, Japanese, and Latin as well.

That's cool that you know so many different languages. Cantonese is my native language and the official language in my country is Mandarin. I know it well for sure. Then I learned English as the foreign language in school. I also learn a very little bit French and Japanese but of course it is not good enough to have a conversation yet.

@prashu228 There are many dialects in China as well as India. Cantonese is mainly used in Guangdong Province and Hong Kong.

Most of the Indians can speak three languages I guess. What is Duolingo ?
