2.5 I'd say.

French, Hungarian (.5) and English. I can read and write in the first and last only.



I can speak french, but can't write it well enough
I anderstand english pretty well, but my writing is not that good
And i anderstand creol, well only when my mother is speaking
And I wish to learn spanish but am too lazy for that right now



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

English and French!

I'm confused. Wouldn't that be "Español y Ingles"? In Portuguese "and" is "e", but I thought it was "y" in Spanish.

Yes, in Spanish "and" is translated as "Y", but when the following word starts with "i"(the same sound) we say "e" instead of "y".   i.e: Español y Francés, Español e italiano.

 

BTW i speak Spanish and English, and i'm starting to learn Chinesse

Thanks! So your "e" sounds like the beginning of the English word "entrance"? We always use "e" but it sounds like your "y" (or the beginning of the word Italy).

Yes, the "e" in spanish sounds like entrance.

I'm intrigued about your "e", I always thought the e in portuguese sounded the same as ours
