Ukrainian! Yeah for Ukies!

I used to speak perfect Ukrainian when I was but a wee lad. When I started school though, I lost it all and started speaking English.

I can speak enough French to get along, and I am starting Latin courses next year.

I hope to learn swahili at some point......

Here's my list
Quote:
Dutch (Fluently)
Frisian (Fluently)
English (Pretty much fluently)
German (minimaly)
French (Very minimaly)
Ancient Greek (I should be arrested for putting it here)


EDIT: Let's make this more true to life...
Dutch and Frisian native. I grew up with English, but I never had the chance to get some experience using it.
In general I'm terrible at languages.

Flemish and Dutch are identical, safe perhaps a few sayings.

So here goes:

Dutch (fluent)
English (fluent)
French (fluent)
Hebrew (fluent)
German (working)
Yiddish (conversational)
Arabic (conversational)
