German - mother tongue

English - good enough for now :)

Japanese - around intermediate level, I want to improve and also there is still a lot to improve upon :)

French - 5 years in school but can't have a conversation, still there must be some French somewhere in the depths of my brain ;)

Mandarin and Korean - both I have learned a bit, but still very beginner. my next aim is to get good at one of them at least.

Well I went to an international school so I speak English as my primary language, even though I'm Indonesian. I also speak Bahasa Indonesia, Chinese (about 10+ years of tuition but my listening and reading is a lot better than my writing), and French. Even though I've studied Chinese and French for about the same number of years, I'm slightly more confident with speaking French since I've been to France twice and spent quite a reasonable amount of time there. My Chinese listening and reading is slightly better though. I'd say I'm advanced in French and about upper intermediate for Chinese...

I have some basic Korean & Japanese too ^__^

So your idea of 'fluent' is HSK5?

My native languages are Azerbaijani and Russian (I can't even say which one I know better, probably Russian). I also speak English (fluently), French (used to be at intermediate or even upper intermediate level, but I guess, I've forgotten everything), Turkish (I can understand almost everything, but I can't speak extremely well), some Spanish and some Cantonese.

My native tongue is American English.

By the time I graduate high school, I'll have completed three years of German.

Of course, I'm adding Mandarin to the list now. Hopefully, a few other Asian languages will follow in due time.

English (native)

French (not as well as I should, given how long I've studied off and on, but probably CEFR B2/C1.)

Mandarin (current target; absolute beginner, currently studying for HSK2.)

Other languages I've studied / used / glanced at longingly: Italian, Swedish, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Irish, and more too embarrassing to mention.

Polish (native speaker)

English and Spanish fluently at C2 level (I deal with those two professionally)

French - B1 (although I only studied French for translation, so I can read fairly well, but my speaking and listening abilities are greatly lacking)

German - around A2 probably

Mandarin - somewhere between HSK2 and HSK3

Latin - some theoretical basics

French - native

English - fluent

Spanish - Well I can understand everything but I cannot really speak ( High school teachers, grr...)

And I tried Swedish that I did not like that much, Korean (I am planning to learn korean in Korea in the future) and now starting Chinese but I feel much more serious about it than any other language that I learnt, even English x)

Other than Mandarin, I've got passable German, a little bit of Spanish, American Sign Language and Esperanto. I took Latin in highschool, but I remember very little of it.
