How many languages do you speak?

I always admire the bilinguals, the multilinguals or the polyglots. Learning a language is never easy. Today, the world values english so much that schools in countries where English was never part of their curricula even hire native speakers to teach their students. But there are indibiduals who learn other languages aside from english. I used to practice my german and spanish with my online friends before but since i didnt use them everyday, i simply forgot the basic lines i learned. How many languages do you speak? Mine is two plus two dialects. What about you?

English, Tagalog, basic Japanese (taught in school) and a little bit of Kapampangan (because my significant other hails from Pampanga). But if given a chance, I would like to learn French, Spanish and Mandarin.

@Janet357 I do not know well, to me it is easy because it is mother tongue.

I speak two languages, Spanish natively and Enlgish as a second language. Why don't you try Duolingo to keep learning German and Spanish? It 's a cool app that measures your learning and encourages you to practice everyday.

English is my native language and I can mostly make myself understood in French. And I learnt German in high school but don't remember much of it.
