English and Spanish fluently. I'm a gringa, too, but I was raised by a Spanish professora mother and a Spanish-fluent father, and we lived in Spain when I was a kid and traveled to Mexico a lot, too. Spanish facility comes in very handy in Texas, even Castilian.

Enough French to conduct basic business and/or get by as a tourist. I don't practice Francais nearly enough. Would like to do some sort of immersion study to maintain and develop my skills.

I can read Latin. Understand simple Italian and Portuguese (thanks, mostly, to Spanish). I'd like to study something different one of these days, like Japanese, Urdū, Arabic, or Mandarin Chinese.

I can get by in German, I am fluent in local Scottish dialect but thats it I'm afraid. National Geographic is also online nationalgeographic.com Rating: 5
