English, some Spanish (formally learning), and some D'ni (fictional languages count, right?), and I am studying Latin.
Start building something beautiful and just put the hate away

So far, every single homeschooler I've ever met always learns Latin at some point in their life. It's kinda funny. :)

You just met one who hasn't, Nightfire.  :P

I know English well, traces of Arabic, Spanish, and German, and I'm studying Russian. 
Also, I intend to study Linguistics in college so I can learn other languages.  My goal is to be fluent in Russian, English (check), and Chinese.

I'm about 1/4 Irish (my dad's mother comes from a through-and-through Irish family), and my dad's sister speaks Gaelic very well. 
From what I've seen of it, it's such a mess when it comes to pronunciations, since it has the same and similar letters to English, but with different pronunciations for different combinations.  Russian has a little of that, but I'm getting the hang of it.

I speak English (kinda... the quality has definitely degraded since I've lived overseas :P) and I would call my Japanese... adequate. I can understand a lot more than I can speak.

I studied French in primary school, so I can't remember any. I studied German for four years at high school, and I also can't remember any of that. I also studied Chinese outside school, but guess what? That's all gone too. What a waste! I also studied Latin for six months at school, but I don't count that at all. I often think that having a working memory would be really nice. ;) Languages are like that, though. If you don't use them every day you forget so easily.

English. My second language is Bahasa Indonesia. I also speak a bit of French and Mandarin. And, if fictional languages count, Lapine (Watership Down) and Ga'Hoolian (Guardians of Ga'Hoole). Also, I speak fluent Pig Latin. ;)
Received mostly negative reviews.

I can speak English, Khmer, Spanish, and I'm learning Latin. I don't aim to speak and read it fluently though, just so I can know etymology and stuff like that. :D

I only speak American. Seriously though, I speak English. I can say a few phrases in Spanish, and in Latin. Most of my Spanish I have just picked up over the years, from TV shows, my relations speaking it, and my own reading of it. Latin I'm learning in school. I also speak my own language, which I really just made so I could say mean things without people knowing. And I understand the gibberish toddlers speak.
