Re: What languages do you speak/you would like to learn?
Me too, but I suppose that's not a very good excuse- In English we twist around sentences, have different spellings for alot of words, spells things how they're not pronounced and have strange sayings like mataphors and similies 
Re: What languages do you speak/you would like to learn?
Indeed, and some say English is equally bad. We also have silly rules like where to put 'was' and 'were' in different contexts, and also 'been', 'went' and 'gone' - some wouldn't see the difference. Plus we have double meanings for words only making things more difficult.

I wonder if anyone still speaks in the old English language.

Re: What languages do you speak/you would like to learn?
Oh, that. Seriously, I can't stand that. You have to rephrase the whole sentence to try and make out what's being said, and I'm really bad at unraveling sentences and suchlike

My girlfriend says she was brought up from a Shakespeare background, so she has no problem with interpreting the language. But I do... oh hell I do.
Re: What languages do you speak/you would like to learn?
I´m currently expanding my linguistic skillz (lol just making up words to sound more clever) by learning Spanish. I did not want to learn Spanish, I wanted to continue learning French, but at least Spanish is easier... :/
