English, and (like many people here) enough French to get by, but not fluent. I was in a French immersion program from kindergarten to grade 3, and then took regular French classes through high school.

I only know English fluently.

I took 4 years of Spanish back in high school which I at least try to keep decently fresh in my memory ever since by going back over spanish courses free online. I am better at reading/writing comprehension than speaking it.

I am very interested in learning multiple languages and I'd say I know beginner words / phrases for at least a few of them. When I get more time on my hands I would like to go more in depth and eventually become fluent in several languages. I find different languages to be very intriguing.

Fluent in english only, which is unusual given by background I can understand bits and pieces of French (but not speak it very well) and a few words in German.

I find that the romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish .etc.) are quite similar so if you understand a little of one you can usually guess at the meaning of phrases in others. German is also quite similar to English, except that things can get quite interesting due to all the word-compounding!
