What a depressing question. I used to speak French, but lost it because I had nobody to practice with.

The answer should be more like "1 1/2" since I'm not at all FLUENT in Spanish, but I can usually make myself understood, and can follow the gist of a sentence if it's spoken slowly enough.

I don't think my four years of spanish equate to "moderate fluency."

English and Spanish (so I said two), plus reasonable French and I can use those to get the gist of written Portuguese or Italian. I also have a smattering of Russian and a few words of German and Japanese. I'd like to sit down and actually learn the rules in Portuguese and Italian.

English and German. I picked up a bit of Italian at one time, but have lost most of it. I'm also very good at communicating with animals.

I'm not including computer languages here... English, and I can understand and make myself understood in Spanish, at least for the most part. I used to be more fluent than I am now.

With 'moderate fluency', Swedish, English, and Spanish. I wouldn't say I 'speak' Danish and Norwegian, though I understand them fully (and a Dane or a Norwegian would understand my Swedish). I'm getting better at Scottish, though I don't speak it. I understand (and could probably function ever so clumsily) in German and French.

Three with moderate fluency. A fourth used to be fluent, now just a few words. A fifth, just a little bit.

English it is, and some days I have trouble with that.

Two, but I'd like to speak more. I even made an extremely halfhearted attempt to learn Spanish a while back.

2 (english and spanish) fluently, 1 (portuguese) well enough to get by in the country, 2 more (german and hebrew) well enough to stammer through it with a dictionary at hand (that is, I have the syntax but very little vocab). I can also muddle through a bit of ASL, so "gestures" isn't entirely wrong.

English and ASL, and I'm beginning to wonder why everyone isn't running out to learn a signed language, because it is oh so much fun!!

I speak English fluently and could get by (just) if I woke up in France.
