Who Here Speaks More than One Language?
English is my native tongue. Spanish a close second since my parents began us on a course of second-language Spanish study when we were toddlers. Then we lived in Spain for a time during my kindergarten-first grade school years and were immersed in it by going to Spanish schools. They made sure to speak both languages in our house, but I'm not as fluent as I wish I were in Espanol anymore because I don't get much occasion to practice it in depth.
I can speak, read, and write some very basic French, less and less every day. Again, not enough practice.
I can read Latin thanks to six years of study in it.
And then there's my amazing skill at Pig Latin. That's a tongue I really shine in.[SIZE=\"4\"]\"That best portion of a good man\'s life: his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.\"[/SIZE]
