What is your favourite language
So what is your favourite language? My mother tongue is Pashto, which is also my favorite language. I can also speak Persian (Dari, spoken in Afghanistan) which i really love, but don't confuse that with Farsi Persian spoken in Iran which i don't really like because of their accent and their strong borrowing of words of Arabic and French and other languages
Also what languages can you speak? i can speak Pashto, Farsi, Tajik, Dari, Uzbek, Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi, English and some Russian, im also starting to try and learn Arabic and Spanish.

Re: What is your favourite language
Why bother with what language you can speak - Big Mac & fries sounds the same in any language.

Re: What is your favourite language
Well, purely because it's the only language I'm fluent in, I went for English.
My German & French are rather rusty, having not really been used since I did them at GCSE...
I can swear in Greek & Russian though, so I suppose that's something.

You always learn swear words first! In every language i spoke, i always learnt the swear words first, then everything else. Thats the first step!

Re: What is your favourite language
I love both Dutch and Spanish language, although I don't claim to be fluent in either.
I once studied a little Thai which is an amazing language if not a little cranky
