How many languages can YOU speak?

Post non-phpwcms related topics here - but I don't want to see "hey check this or that other cms". Post if you have a point or worthwhile comment, don't post just to increase you post count!

Hi guys,

i speak german, english and a little french

and, of course, HTML, PHP, VB, SQL and a little C++

@colech - Here in germany you learn at least english at school and often a second foreign language like french.

Greetings

like paradroid, we in england a subjected to years of 'teaching' german and french, unlike the rest of the world any additional languages we English learn is through a personal failing to resist.

lol :wink: to you all.

Now for those of you who studied english well enough to read this--were you taught USA-style english, or was it more Enland-style english? I notice that phpWCMS uses England's spelling of the word "colour" instead of the USA style, "color". Educate me! Am I speaking a bottom scum-sucking language or is England?
