    Hi!

    I wonder, do you people know any foreign languages? I've got a linguistic diploma. Except my mother-tongue, I learned Persian, English and Italian at university. I speak Persian and English fluently, my Italian is basic.
    I studied French at school, but I have completely forgot everything I once knew.

    And what about you?

    Fluent (read/write, listen/speak) in english, and broken french.

    Can understand most languages (read, listen), though... just need a vague idea of a word's etymology
