Languages?

I cannot recall whether or not I replied to this thread already, but I'll list the languages of which I am capable of efficiently communicating with native speakers in.

In order of mastery; Norwegian (Bokmål); English; Norwegian (Nynorsk); Swedish. Furthermore, I have studied, but do not consider myself capable of utilizing in any real life context, French and Portuguese.
 
He must've been raised by wolves.

Romanian: mother tongue, so I guess I kinda know it pretty well, yeah.
English: been learning it for 12+ years, so I'm ultra-fluent. The fact that I mumble instead of talk kind of affects that.
German: been learning it for about 9 years, but for some reason it never did cling to me. I can speak german, but it takes a while to mentally form sentences.
 
Luxembourgish(?) - native language
German - second native language :D? We also learn german at school
French - third language since we also learn french at school
English - Also taught at school
Latin - Optional (I've picked latin classes, sadly I can't get out of them now, BIG BIG MISTAKE)

Also is it 'I did this at school' or 'in school'.
[23-37-46] Dionesiist: Vengeancekael, anyway, if memory serves those were british english and american english variations, I think.
Kidder!
 
Dutch - native language
English - Decent I guess
German - I can read most German texts pretty well, but can't write or speak German without a dictionary
French - Got this at school and I wasn't exactly good at it.
Latin - Not that good at it
Greek - Not that good at Greek either
(Afrikaans*)
(Flemish*)

* Variations of the Dutch language
 
German - Almost fluent (my first language)
English - fluent
Javanese - Decent
French - Know it decently enough for an average talk
Italian - Same as French.
Turkish - Know some phrases and words... not too good though.
Latin - New to it, and DAMN i regret dropping French lessons for this... "language".
Bosnian - Native / fluent
Croatian - fluent
Serbian - fluent
1337 - almost fluent
 
Dunno if I already mentioned this, but I'm too lazy to browse these 8-9 pages just to check, so:

English: Very fluent
Arabic: Native, fluent
French: Native, not so good (~1000 words)
Italian: ~400 words (Took it for a few months, might continue learning soon)

I might consider learning the following languages in the future though:

German: My cousin knows German, and she says it isn't so hard, so I might consider learning it in the future
Japanese: My best friends are Anime-fags, so they decided to learn Japanese ^_^
One of them already knows a lot of words and phrases, and from what I've heard, it's a pretty fun language ;D
Spanish: I MUST learn this language.
 
Portuguese - Native (my southern accent and my different way to pronounce the 'R' may sound weird, but still).
English - Decent, I guess.
Spanish - Basic.
French - Very basic.
German - Very very basic.
Latin - Basic.
1337 - Fluent.
 
My native tounge is swedish, my english is decent and i know a little spanish. :)
