[QUOTE="Emelee, post: 13289, member: 73"] Swedish English Norwegian Danish (if the danes speak slowly; reading Danish is no problem) German (tourist level only) I've read Spanish at school, but I can't remember much. Like, anything. I've educated kids in French, even though I don't understand it. The trick is to be 1 chapter ahead of the pupils, and practice pronounciation. ;) But what annoys me is that my parents never taught me Meänkieli (a blend of Finnish/Swedish that is its own language). They speak it, but they thought bilingual children didn't learn their main language good enough. They are bilingual themselves. Now they use Meänkieli to speak to each other when they don't want me to understand. :mad: [/QUOTE]
