"Anybody here speak any unusual foriegn languages?"

This isn't asking you to use Alta Vista and translate some Swedish, I'm asking if you learn/know any slightly weird foriegn languages. Not like French, German and Spanish, but less common ones.

I've got a GCSE in Russian, so I wonder if any of you guys learn that...

I was going to take Russian at Uni

How cool would that be

I sucked at French because it bored me

I speak leprechaun:

"Trulipearl mesma-rander skilipany pin sunpenny"

Translation: :Trim the beard of a snoozing dwarf."

I can read Hebrew (have to, I'm Jewish) but I don't know any words apart from the standard 'Lord, our savior, creator of the Universe' spiel.

French is actually very unusual.... Bah, I know some Hebrew, too.

Ide like to speak Japanise but im too lazy when it comes to languages :)

I know one word in Indian if that counts :-P

Latin is regarded as common muck, gerrid...

That's cool about your Uncle though, RBS.

I speak Portuguese/Brazilian.

Antes de voce falar alguma coisa de copo de mundo, eu acho que futebol e uma merda.

That means: Before you say anytink about da world cup, I think football is S***.

I think that leanring czech is pretty impressive, and useless. Not that I'm learining it or anything, but...

I learn latin, does that make me cool?

Not me, but my Godfather speaks 24 languages, the usuals plus a lot of African dialects and so forth. And a bloke my brother used to work with speaks 46 mostly African dialects (he's Nigerian). Insane.
