Which language are you learning or would like to learn?

Latin.
Russian.
Shame it's not an option, but Welsh.
French.
Got the grammar down, just gotta expand my vocabulary
I found Russian really hard to speak, but easy to understand
I'm learning Swedish as of now.
Just got into a Russian class at my local university after having to drop it in highschool because I couldn't afford the tutor. I'm pretty excited.
Learning:
Spanish
Indonesian (at school)
Want to learn:
Swedish
German
Russian
Listed in order that I want to learn them.
Español
or order of priority.
auto merge.
I'm trying to learn Scots and Scottish Gaelic, because I have Scottish heritage. Although, I would like to learn a Scandinavian language. I already know enough French to get by in Quebec. Other than that, nothing yet.
Voted English and Russian. Also Japanese and German, maybe Spanish (I didn't notice it on the list until after I voted).
English is my first language, but I'm still finding words I don't understand as well as alternate spellings and meanings (differences between british, australian, american, etc english). Russian, German, and Japanese just sound cool to me, and aside from being able to understand voices in videogames or movies, listening to music in said languages, or just speaking it because I can, I don't really have a use for knowing them, so I won't go through the effort.
French, Italian and Punjabi/Hindi
I went to a few Russian lessons that a support teacher set up. Sadly she left at the end of the term :frown:
Being from an English state school getting the chance to learn a language other than German or French is on par with winning the lottery.

Jag började ungefär åtta månader sedan, @ svensk folk - hurr gör jag?
That's Swedish btw.[/QUOTE]
Pretty good, I'm not Swedish but it's very similar to Norwegian.
I bet you can read some Norwegian too: -"Dette er meget bra, men det Norske språk er bedre enn det Svenske!"
I used to know Japanese and french.
I know Japanese because i lived at weaboo heaven for 3 years.
I know French because I wanted to learn it.
Now, I still remember a little bit of Japanese and I totally forgot how to speak French. I also used to know a little bit of Russian.
I know how to read Arab but I don't even know a single word.
So currently, I know Malay, Indonesian, Brunei, (their language is 75% similar), English.
Russian, what a surprise :O
I'm sort-of teaching myself Japanese (still learning the hiragana), and I tried self-learning for Russian a few months ago. I managed to get the alphabet mostly down, at least.
And I already know flawless English, am fluent in Latin, and know basic Spanish, French and German. Enough to survive in the respective countries, at least. I couldn't write a novel, but I could find the facilities and get directions.
I already speak Italian and English, Spanish is my born language.
College already takes massive amounts of my time, so I'm happy with what i know.
Japanese because I'm staying there for a little while after my Degree (I have 2 years left to learn what I can) and Italian because it's a beautiful language that i've always been interested in and would like to visit there when I can afford it in the future.
Swedish! I want to go to Sweden one day.

Wow, you're Norwegian but I'm still 100% sure that you just spoke a load of shit. My grammar may suck, but there is no way that your translation is right at all.
im coming from england = jag är kommer från england
i come from england = jag kommer från england
finns det = there is / there are
inget anledning = no reason
men jag är ändå = but i am anyway
började = started
ungefär = about / approximately
Quoting myself for reference:
