I speak English, and a tiny bit of Spanish, barely enough to get me by visiting a Spanish-speaking country.

However, I'm thinking about learning Chinese some time, even though my handwriting will make it look Egyptian.

Spain.
Spanish is my first language.
My English reading skills are good, but I suck at writing/speaking it.

I only speak American. YEEEEEEE-HAW!

Took French all the way to French 4, which I dropped for two reasons. A) I work better with a Free Period. B) I forgot just about everything I learned over the summer.

Within the confines of my mortal shell in T-Town.
English (general West Coast), English (Midwestern U.S.), Southern, Ebonics, half-decent but rusty Spanish, and I can read/write hiragana, romaji, and partial katakana.

Oh, and my limited Arabic vocabulary consists of Allah, habibi, akbar and shawarma. As used in a "sentence", "Habibi, shawarma-al-Allah hu akbar", loosely meaning "Brother, this shawarma from God is great."

Insha'Allah is also the greatest cop-out ever.

Arabic and English(as a second language). I learned English(and American culture) from watching Cartoon Network all the time as a child. And they say too much TV isn't good for you...

heh, heh, this brought me to thinking, how many people i know that actually speak english with a diffrent (coast) accent, such as you mentioned, west coast which tend to speak it kinda like gangsta, as well as down here in Texas where some people tend to speak it with a country accent like "howdy y'all"

My American accent sucks so hard. I'm working at it though. I have a good English accent though. American > English.

Only stupid rich people. I volunteer and I hear people sometimes use slang, but it has a genuine feel to it. Rich people (White as well as Black, but mostly Filipinos) act like "YEEAH BOII!! r u ready for DIS SHIZNIT!!" and stupid **** like this. A few friends and I were at a little deli resturant, and a few white and Filipino kids (like, they're 14-16, we're all 18 and 19) walked in like that with tank tops and chains, one had a poor grill-substitute of tin foil(!), walked like 50 Cent video extras, talked like I posted above, and I just busted out laughing right there. One went up and said "u gut a problem, BI-YATCH?," and then the rest of my friends and one of the workers just started bawling. They got their food and were eying us the whole time. After like seven or something minutes, more than five but less than ten, a woman came in and looked at one and said "What the hell is taking so long? I sent you in to get the food and back, we are going NOW!" They waddled outside into that kid's mom's mini-van and drove off. The entire restaurant was going nuts. It was ****ing hilarious.


As for my accent, it's a little bit stereo-typical San Franciscan, but there are times when people say I speak with a little-Southern drawl (I spent just about every summer in Missouri) or British at times, but not often.

lol. I always see those type of people around where I live, *foil tin grills*, they always tend to talk slang and act tough, but in reality, they're nothing, just a bunch of 50 cent wannabes.

My native tongue is Georgian and I also speak fluent English. I am learning French in school (if that can be called learning) and I understand a bit of Russian as well (which is something I'm not proud of).

Most of you probably don't even know what or where Georgia is. Then again, you might because of the brief war there this past August. :ohwell:
