I've always wanted to learn Swedish or an Asian one, but i'm too lazy.
 
Not really anymore. Used to speak French, can still get by if needed. Also, I can say beer, wine, chipmunk and fucking whore in hungarian as well as sing the lyrics to the chorus of the Doors song Love Me Two Times.

Learning Swedish is a waste of time. I lived in Stockholm for a few years, and while I can understand Swedish just fine, my spoken Swedish sucks. Why? BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD SPEAK TO ME IN SWEDISH!!! They were so fired up to practice their English, and were always trying to be so damn accommodating, I rarely spoke to anyone in Swedish.

Those damn Scans are just too nice!
 
One of my majors in college was Romance Languages & Literature. Supposedly, I'm supposed to be able to speak some of them. However, to speak well, I need to get drunk so I stop thinking.
 
In 8th grade a good friend of mine who had been living in Somalia for a few years taught me how to say "Fuck your father's camel!" in Somalian. Can't quite remember it now but I used it whenever I felt it appropriate back in those days. Nawsulawheela!? Something like that.

I can understand Arabic real well but have trouble speaking it unless I'm drunk and then it just comes naturally lol. Glad I'm not the only one
 
I can speak French at about a low intermediate level and Spanish at a high beginner level or thereabouts.

French (and some Creole), Pashto, some basic Dari/Farsi.
 
I can understand a little Dutch, and speak even less, but my daughter speaks 3 foreign languages and sign language fluently. She is a senior in high school
 
Since my native language is portuguese, I would say I also speak english and spanish.
 
Différentes langues sont faciles à apprendre. Même zags pouvaient le faire.
 
I know enough Italian to get around Italy and hold a shallow conversation, or at least I did at one point. I think if I went back a lot of it would come back to me.

Theoretically I should know Spanish at a sort of intermediate level, but I haven't used any of it since high school so I think it may be long gone.

That's where I am with German. Studied for four years in high school, but that was over 15 years ago. I truly regret the fact that I wasted all that time on a language I would never use. I wish I had take Spanish instead...
 
Studied French for many years including in college but with no real chance to use it (except a few books) a lot has been lost. Speak Spanish badly, understand more. With Spanish speaking friends, I try speaking Spanish and they try speaking English. A few phrases in Chinese, a tad Russian.

An Iranian friend taught me two phrases in Farsi, which, not knowing the alphabet, I can only transliterate.
Mag ba shah - death to the shah
NSFW: Bezar tukesan - stick it in me (not a phrase I'm likely to need)
