I'm interested in finding out how many languages our esteemed forum colleagues can speak. For the purposes of the optional poll "speaking a language" doesn't necessarily mean full fluency - just a basic grasp of verbal/textual conversation in that language.
I'd also be interested if you'd post your feelings about 'other languages', is it generally useful to be able to speak another language? Was it something you were forced to learn in school that you've never had any use for? Perhaps you have a funny language story*?
If you're multi-lingual then do you feel that one of your languages is better for some purposes than others? I find French far better for being angry, for example
* That's vanishingly unlikely but who knows? Make my day
