You mean more than one language can fit in your brain?! 🫠
English (native), Japanese & German (rookie?) I’ve been using Duolingo for about 4 years but am not that confident, and I have been thinking about trying Mandarin.
You may have to buy the necessary brain upgrade from your brain dealer, but generally multiple languages fit yeah 😉 It may get a bit confusing if they’re very similar languages though, although I also find that that may help in retention of vocabulary.
Native English
Lower end of intermediate: Otali Cherokee
Could learn better if immersed: Zinacantan Tzotzil Maya
Could/want to learn more of: Qosqo Quechua, Nahuatl (Dialect[s] unknown)
Am aging much quicker than many, so attaining new information is fairly difficult (But may prove helpful to some, I hope, 😁 ).
To set the right example:
I speak dutch (native); english (fluent); german, spanish, portuguese, french, esperanto (good); italian (adequate); russian (slightly below adequate); mandarin chinese (basic); arabic (very poorly)
I’m learning mostly russian and chinese, for many years already, but not in any formal setting and with for many years already. I like reading books in the other languages to keep them up.
Fluently I speak German, Czech, Norwegian and English. And then a little russian but not very much. I might be able to hold a very general convo

I speak English natively, and Hebrew pretty well. I am learning Russian and can get by with a lot of context. I know enough French to get the gist of simple conversations and have studied a bit of Irish.
Of note, I have also been studying Old English off and on for a few years.
Natively Finnish, fluently english. I also studied german for maybe 6 years at school, i think I remember the grammar pretty well but vocabulary is lacking. Swedish is mandatory in Finland so i’ve studied that too, but i don’t care about swedish so my skills are pretty bad. My girlfriend has taught me Thai a little bit
I speak English, Spanish, and Italian. I am trying to learn classical Latin because when I was in grad school I didn’t pay attention because I didn’t need it. After that, I want to learn Old Norse and Ancient Greek.
🇬🇧 natively, speak 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇸🇪🇵🇹, learning 🇫🇷! How about everyone else? :D
Hello everybody. I’m a native English speaker, an intermediate Spanish speaker, and I’m learning Nahuatl.
Hello…
Originally english, moja żona mówi po polsku, mes enfants apprends le français à l’école, en een beetje nederlands. 我学到的最有趣的语言是中文 . я выучил много песен на русском языке, pero para cantar la lengua más alegre es el espanõl, е o mais divertido de se ouvir é o português. Anyway music 🎶 is a universal language, το ίδιο και τα μαθηματικά. But I spent too many years juggling java, until most recently learning scala. Now a citizen of nowhere, wondering what’s next? I’d like to discuss future world pathways with people in Africa, or maybe India.I just found this sub and it’s really cool, I was thinking of making something similar but kinda forgot. Thanks for making the community!

Native English speaker. Spanish, conversational. Thai, conversational. O’lelo Hawaii, beginner.
I am also using very basic ASL in my classroom. I am an elementary school teacher and ASL is incredibly helpful in communicating with students without interrupting the classroom.
I am native French. Fluent in English and Danish. Currently learning Esperanto and having lots of reflexions around that.
