Public Research: Mothertongue (Part 4 - Europe) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

My mothertongue is German.

Besides German, I am speaking English (surprise surprise

), French and a little bit of Dutch.
Well my French speech was better in earlier times. I spoke French the last time 5 years ago. But although I am not able to speak really Dutch, I am able to understand that, because of the close relation to English and German.

I don't count Spanish and Italian to my languages, but I can order a coffee.
