Quote:"I remember taking Spanish tests when I was in school. I would just take all the English words and add "o" to the end of 'em. I got an f-o." - Brian Regan
That's sort of what you do to speak german if you know swedish! Just add "ge-" to the beginning or switch the ending to "-lich"... A friend of mine (who is really bright), forgot to study for his german test, but for all the words he didn't know, he took the swedish word and germanifyed it. He got like 90%.
Anyway, I speak swedish and english, of course, learnt french for several years but haven't used it much recently, am currently learning german, and also speak swahili
Edit: Oh, and I also learned a bit of hindi a few years a go, before and during a trip to India. Sadly, I've forgotten most of it. I can still read the script, but won't understand what I'm reading.
And I believe it's Scotland that's talking about breaking out of the UK!
