I speak English, Scots and bits of Gaelic, French, German and Polish.
There are plenty of magicians who speak fluent gobshite though - not many have admitted to it though. At least we don't seem to have many here who think they can make any person in the world understand English by shouting! |

English, some German, and I took Latin for 2 years!
Not that anyone speaks Latin,but it can still be considered a language.

Very intersting what some people learn.
For me I speak: 1. Australian English....grew up there after family went there from Scotland. 2. American English.....after living with so many friends from there for the past 28 years. Believe me many terms and phrases and pronunciations are very different. 3. Mandarin Chinese (from living in Taiwan for 13 years) 4. Some Japanese. Lived there for almost 2 years. 5. Some Hindi....lived there for about 1 and a half years. JoJo

I've got to say, I'm impressed with the number of magicians who know ASL. My wife is an interpreter, so I've naturally had to learn some so I can converse with her clients and friends. And YES, it is considered a foreign language.
Besides English, I used to speak French (fluently enough to be able to think in French rather than having to translate it), but I'm really surprised how fast you forget when you don't use it all the time. I still practice reading it on the internet, but when I recently found a French radio station online, I found they might have well been speaking Venutian. Of course it's that way too, when I got to a Deaf function and see two people arguing. Muhammed Ali would be jealous of their hand speed. |

Italian and English. Can also work my way around in Spanish and Latin, and in general with languages that have their roots in Latin.
A suggestion to the guy who wanted to practice Latin: roman catholic priests speak it.

Interesting to see so many polyglots around.
Besides my native English, I've studied, and speak to one extent or another: Spanish, French, German, Hebrew, Mandarin (used to know around 1200 characters), Persian, Esperanto, and Hungarian. I also like writing systems and can read (but not necessarily understand): Russian (Cyrillic), Japanese (kana), Sanskrit (Devanagari), Arabic (mostly from learning Persian), as well as some Mayan and Egyptian heieroglyphs. Anyone know of magic effects that directly involve multiple languages in some way? |
