Chinese is my mother tongue, and I speak English as well, though not really fluent. As I'm Malaysian, I speak Malaysia language. So, altogether I speak three languages. I do speak another Chinese dialect, which is Cantonese, but I don't think it's considered as a language.

Hi... In my daily conversation I was use Indonesian, Javanese, Banjar (where I live now), Bahau Busaang (My mother language), and English for my online activities. It's not an amazing things if we want to hearing and listening other language and try to speaking it out to them. I realize that if I make some comparison on these language it can be the source of wisdom. In Bahau Busaang there are many idioms couldn't translate to Javanese, for example. Here I must looking for the exact words in Javanese to cover this. Have you come to Indonesia? Be blessed...Keep smiling today.

That is very true. My mother tongue is Korean as I am Korean. I was born here but raised in America. However, my Korean is not as nearly as good as my English. Even though it is my second language, most of the time I feel like it was my first. I have and am still learning Spanish. Although people think it is an easy language, it is harder once you actually try learning it. My dad speaks a couple as well. He speaks English, Korean, Chinese, and a little bit of Japanese and Spanish as well.

I know only three - my mother tongue, Hindi and English. I'm not proficient with any of these three languages. I know it's of no use If I became proficient in Hindi or in my mother language. But I have taken steps to improve my English. I hope within few years I'll be proficient in English.
