tengaku squared 291 Report post Posted February 8, 2011 I studied german in school (for 5 years) but I forget everything. Because I never practiced it. ^^ This happens to half the languages we learn when we are young and stupid... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aeyra 260 Report post Posted February 26, 2011 My best language is English, but my first one was Chinese. I spoke it a lot as a little kid, but I forgot a lot of it over the years. I'm relearning it now, and I'm getting better. I can read some and speak okay, but writing is too hard. (bleh.) If I'm looking at something while I write I can write the character. I also know some Spanish as I'm taking it in my middle school. (Como estas?) some people know a lot of languages here... Being American I don't know too many... But I'll learn more Spanish once I get into high school! Middle school Spanish doesn't teach much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsukiko 73 Report post Posted April 14, 2011 Finnish: my native language English: started in primary school when I was 9. Swedish: started in primary school when I was 10. Another alternative back then was German but it wasn't necessary to start a new language in that age. The ones who didn't start Swedish in pri.sch. had to start it in junior high school. Muahaha! I'm better than they are. :-D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
