Aviation English.

C++
Visual Basic
C#
HTML
Java
Cobol (oh how I loathe thee)
Javascript (if one can consider that a language, it's sort of a minor dialect of computer languages)

Asides from my native tongue, I speak freely in English, have reasonable command of Russian, and basic understanding of German and Latin.
Proud National Socialist. Blaming everything on the liberals since 2000.

The world is full of criminal enterprises and terrorist organizations. The most successful ones are known as states.

Life is like surfing the Internet - there's no meaning or purpose, yet you don't really want to quit either.

The fact that slaves are allowed to elect their masters does not abolish the division in masters and slaves.

Don't try to deride me by calling me an "-ist" or "-phobe" unless you are referring to a medical condition or are trying to compliment me.

Socially-liberal capitalist democracy DOES NOT equate to free society.

Contrary to popular belief, National Socialists aren't racists. They simply hate their own race less than others.

My native tongue is Canadian English, but I can understand some French and Spanish, French from Mme. Doran, our former French teacher who left in Grade 4, only a single year in Grade 4.

The other, Spanish, comes from Dora the Explorer. ;)

I used pronouns until the mods made using wrong pronouns warnable, so I use names instead; if you see malice there, that's entirely on you, and if pronouns are no longer warnable, I'll go back to using them

I can't speak Russian, but I can speak English with a Russian accent.

If James Bond films have taught me anything, I can bring down the Russian bad guys with that skill alone.

Fluently, English, Irish, and French. (Plus Latin, if you'll consider that).
But I love studying languages, hence I can read most languages, know the basics of at least 40 languages, and know words and phrases in languages around the world.
