Interesting people can be found anywhere.

I was at CVS waiting in line when I overheard her speaking in a foreign language that I thought was French. When she finished her conversation by phone, I politely turned around and asked her if that was French I heard. She said, “No, it was Russian.” Turns out as we conversed, she told me she spoke 6 languages fluently. 1. Russian 2. Ukrainian, 3 . French, 4. English, 5. Spanish, and the last one I can’t remember (sorry). She works for Fort Brag as an interpreter. She was actually calling someone to take her place at her job because she was ill. I found her interesting.

How many languages can you speak? Tell what what other languages you speak. 😃

Italian and German (born/grew up in Italy, but of Liechtensteiner origins); French (studied at school and lived in France); English (studied at school and been living in the UK since 2013); Russian (studied with the help of native friends); Spanish.
My mother has Danish origins, but I can only say some words.
@dareme I’m actually a French speaking wanna be. Lol I use translation online mostly. I did take 2 years of French in school. I love the fFrench language.

@Unefilletrescurieuse I agree, it's one of the most beautiful languages in the world! Good luck with your learning!!!
@dareme thank you so much. I tried a little with her. And she responded with French and the biggest part I understood. 😃

Would Ebonics count as a 2nd language? 🤔
@Thrust Probably not technically but they certainly have a language of their own. I consider their “language” as dialect. 🙂
