Tu e eu partilhamos o mesmo ideal. Aprender nunca é demais e, quanto mais sabemos, melhor.

(You and I share the same ideal. Learning is never too much and, the more we know, the better.)

التعلم هو الأفضل! في لغات تخططي لقرايتها؟

Para além do Holandês, eu gostaria de aprender Japonês, Finlandês e até Zulu! E tu?

(Beyond Dutch, I'd like to learn Japanese, Finnish and even Zulu! And you?)

Yo estoy muy atrasado, solamente tengo fluidez en dos lenguas. ; ____ ; Tengo que hacer algo!

(I'm so behind, I'm only fluent in two languages. I need to do something!)

[Marizzle]

Oh, hablas Español? No lo sabia! Tener fluidez en dos lenguas ya es bueno! Algunas personas solo hablan una lengua.

(Oh, you speak Spanish? I didn't know [that]! Being fluent in two languages is already good! Some people only speak one language.)

[it means no worries]

Say that again to a randomer on the street

Haha most people only speak one

[Gemini]

Si, lo hablo. No tan bien como un hispanohablante nativo pero tengo fluidez por escribir y leer y yo puedo escuchar bien. Un viaje corto a un pais hispano debe mejorar mis habilidades de hablar. Asi yo deciria que tengo fluidez en el idioma sobretodo.

(Yeah, I speak it. Not as well as a native Spanish-speaker but I'm fluent in writing and reading and I can listen well. A short visit to a Hispanic country should better my speaking abilities. So I'd say that I'm fluent in the language overall.)

EDIT: Ninja'd, but true. Guess I'm doing better than 90% of Americans. xD

[it means no worries]

I thought bilinguals were freaks in America

[Gemini]

Si, es verdad. xD Salvo unas comunidades en Nevada, California, Arizona, etc. Hay muchos que hablan espanol y ingles nativamente y tengo mucho invidia porque no habla espanol bien nadie aqui en Washington.

(Yeah, that's true. Except for some communities in Nevada, California, Arizona, etc. There are many people there that speak Spanish and English natively and I'm really jealous because nobody speaks Spanish well here in Washington.)

[juhouh]

jos sun äidinkieli on englanti niin oot aina yhden kielen meistä jäljessä

(if your mother tongue is English you're always one language behind us)

[it means no worries]

Haha c'est vrai!^

(Thats true!)
