I can only do English sadly. I respect my son for living and working in Japan for the past two years
Can your son speak Japanese? Thats crazy hard to learn that!
Ive lived in Norway, Spain and now Belgium, so I speak French, both forms of standardized Norwegian, I can understand Catalan as its very similar to a dialect of Southern France, and my Spanish isnt perfect, but its fine to get by in all but the most complex conversations. Currently learning Dutch (A2 level, so no master, but enough to order things, hold simple conversations). I spent a while working in Russia a long time ago, so know the very basics of that. But then you find that when you know Spanish and French, you can pretty much get Italian when its written. When you know English and Norwegian, you can understand bits of German. When you speak Norwegian, you can pretty much understand Swedish and Danish. Know a bit of Russian, you can get by in Ukraine or Poland.
Wow, that's impressive sussexpob.
My mum spoke fluent French and because of that she could pick up bits of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.
My son claims he doesn't speak Japanese as well as he should but I think he's being modest. Like yuppie and his Swedish!
Mane scores that crucial away goal for Liverpool.
Matip own goal. Lewandowski was lurking 1-1.
