I speak 6 langaues and can write in 3 different ones.. First ofcourse is English as you can see i have no problem with my writing this discussion and making myself clear...he he heeee Secound is Hindi that is used in India and the Third is Marathi also used in india though only people from Bombay are fluent in it and few more regional languages from my country i am in the process of taking french and spanish classes.. So how many do you speak and write and where??

Mother tongue is the first to every child. Hindko is my mother tongue. I learnt it in the barn of my mother. Second is pushto we use to speak with our friends in our town, Third one is Urdu which is national language of our country. We learnt English in our studentship life. We are still students and learning and expressing ourselve in English. English is one of the popular language and also very important. I do not claim that I am master of all. But I also add that every language is bethel. I am still learning and trying to communicate my innerself.

I live in India and here as their are many religions,customs and cultures so we here in India come across different languages.The languages which I know are:- Hindi:-As I am born in India so I know its national language which is Hindi.We communicate here in India with Hindi language with each others. English:-As English is considered as the globally used language.We get basic English teaching here in India.This language is considered as more important language in India. Urdu:-As I am a muslim boy so it is very important for a muslim to learn Urdu because most of our religious books are written in Urdu. Arabic:-I know Arabic a bit because this language is little bit same like Urdu.Their are very small differences between those languages.
