Spanish... Peruvian type. I can switch to Argentine spanish for a while.

Then comes American English, and a bit of the real English (from England, obviously).

Although, I forgot chinese. D:

What's important to learn from a language, besides the basic lame dialogues and insults?

That's a lie. I haven't stepped foot out of America (the continent, not what you guys call "America") yet. That means my vision of the world is incomplete.

Although, comparing x1 to me, well... he can be able to say such thing. Lol.

*sulks* I'll be outta this country soon. And I hate it when us people from the US call it America. "It's like, dude there's two Americas, and North America also has Canada, and Mexico," depending on how you see it.

Yeah, it is annoying how people thinks the US deserves the right to be named after the continent and no other country has that right.

:O YOU UNAMERICAN TRAITOROUS COMMIE! How dare you speak lowly of the US of A?! You should be sent to prison with no trial by our incredibly democratic Republican government!

xD Kidding of course. I call it America because, well, saying the United States is too long. (Two words?! Come on! I'm too lazy for that.) And it sounds a little more homey, at times. idk. (Honestly though do British people go around calling their country the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland all the time?)

I was studying German when I thought I was going to Germany for a work study course in my area of specialization. For reasons I will not go into here my work study course was shifted from Germany to Mexico and I landed in Mexico City Airport with my last lessons in Spanish having been in 9th Grade ten years earlier (and I failed that...). Fortunately, I also landed with a Spanish-English dictionary and a first-year textbook, and most of the people at the institute where I worked and studied spoke English at various levels. I eventually spoke good Spanish for two weeks, my last week (of four months) there, and my first week back home.

Both my Spanish and my German are hopeless now. My German was never anything but.

English is my first language but I am very fluent in Cymraeg (Welsh). i.e.

"Croesor I pawb! TB3 yma - sut wyt ti heddwl?"

Hello all! TB3 here - how are you today?

"YDV, rydw I'n meddwl bod ti un o fy ffrindiau mawr ar LF!"

YDV, I think you're one of my biggest friends on LF!

Yes, I agree that "United States of America" is too long. I think people call it America because "America" is part of "United States of America". In Chinese, the formal name for America is Meilijian Gongheguo (Meilijian meaning American, and Gongheguo meaning Republic), but people just say Meiguo (Mei being the first part of Mei, and guo meaning country).

English is my first language. I know minimal Spanish, some French, and the regular brand of fangirl Japanese (Kawaii, bishonen, etc). Plus bits n peices of other languages.

Like almost everyone else, English is my first language. I also know some Hebrew and a little bit of Spanish (but not much considering how bad my Spanish grades are...)

English is my first language, Spanish is my second... sort of. I know a small bit of it, but I was never able to truly grasp the language so I can't speak it fluently and when i do speak it I speak it brokenly. Shame too, because I want to wrestle in Mexico one day, but I reckon I know enough to get myself around.

I really would like to learn Japanese too, if at very least, in the same broken way I can speak spanish as I want to go to Japan to wrestle as well.

Well, mine is English like most, but I can sing the entire CL theme song in French so I can speak it somewhat well, as well as studying words of it and memorizing them. I also speak somewhat well Spanish and very well German. I love the Germans ^^

I memorized the French theme song as well. I know the basic French word structure, but I don't know that many words.

Yeah, me too! Like...I don't even know how I memorized it. After a few days I started singing it completely in French, even when the English one was playing, and my sister was like "How do you do that?" "Do what?" "Memorize all those French words? They don't even look like...like English words! (O-O)" "I dunno. I just started singing and there we go."

Hehe...

I memorized the French version because I thought it sounded cool and the English version is kind of pathetic. I mean "make evil go away?" That sounds like something a little kid would say. No offense to little kids.
On Topic (sort of):
Based on these results I can infer that not a lot of Chinese people watch Code Lyoko.

Heh, I used to think that. But the English version sorta grew on me. ^^;;

It still doesn't have the same "soul" as the original French version has..
