Primary language is Italian, then I speak English, French and German(haven't practised this one in a long time so it is slowly fading away unfortunately). I would love to learn Japanese, Portuguese or Danish.

I speak English primarily and also Portuguese (although I'm not that great)... what does "speak" a language mean? When I speak Portuguese it's very obvious I'm foreign, but it works for understanding. I used to speak French and lived awhile in Paris but that was a long time ago... I studied Spanish, Italian, Hindi, and Hebrew too, but I wouldn't say I "know" them.

I want to learn Greek because my family comes from there and my dad grew up there and I'd like to visit more. I'd also like to become fluent in Spanish because I think it's pretty necessary these days. And Italian because... it's hot.

I speak Portuguese and English and would like to learn Spanish. Shouldn't be so hard, since it's very similar to Portuguese. I would also like to learn Italian, just for the sake of it.

I only offer advice - not even legal. Just the plain and simple kind.

I speak English and Spanish. I also speak Korean, but if the conversation is about complicated things, like politics, I am lost. I want to learn to speak Korean better, but have not applied myself. None of my husband's family or friends speak English so I always speak Korean with them--although with a limited vocab.
