For me it would be:
english
vietnamese
french
japanese

in the process of learning arabic and latin

I'm currently trilingual.
English(native language)
Spanish(close to mastery)
Japanese(fairly basic)

English and Spanish. I know how to speak some VERY, VERY basic Japanese, but I don't think it really counts, since I couldn't function in japan at all with the slim amount I know, and can't write/read it at all. (I can ask where the bathroom is, know basic sentence structure, and know a bunch of single words.)

________________

I speak finnish and english, that people understand me.
And i speak little swedish.
And i have studied spanish and italy, but don't remember much.
And i know few word's of japanese.

In order of most fluent to very basic:

English
Tagalog
Spanish
Japanese

I want to learn French and German, but all in due time.

first: japanese
second: english
learning: korean

Bilingual:
-English and Spanish
My spanish sucks though because I hardly take time to perfect it and I mostly talk English in school except when me and my friends don't want others to hear us or a teacher. I have now resorted to Spanglish My dad loves correcting my Spanish grammar.

I'm trying to learn Korean and Japanese. I know basic Japanese but I resort to romaji

I can speak Chinese fluently as well as English (duh). I'm learning Spanish but I can't speak a understandable sentence to save my life

i speak Norwegian fluently, my english is getting there, and i butcher french

I'm only fluent in English. I had four years of French in high school, but unfortunately I don't remember much of it.

English - Native
French - I could maybe pull a sentence together (might not make sense tho )

________________

It's actually possible........ people who encounter mass-cultures as part of their business or everyday interaction might require u to go through this.......missionaries are a good example......and also people who live around religious pilgrimage areas........

one example: people in Mecca and Medina....many of them who run their business need to talk fluently and effectively in many even more than 30 at times since people from all over the world are coming..and many dont speak englsh.......all at once

besides one thing to note here once someone gets the hang of about 10 languages learning other languages takes less effort than b4....since many patterns will repeat...and also the brain will have the lingual side quite developed....... this is speciall true for people from Bukhara ( an area in east europe, near and around Albania, and the Phatans from north west Pakistan and Afghanistan.........not that I am one of them

Kinda similar to memorizing.......people who memorize whole books and scriptures after a certain point have an easier time than they did b4

aside that for me i can identify with 3 well
-urdu/hindi: theyre basically the same except i dont know hindi scripture
-English
-Arabic.....although i need to brush up and learn more

the other 4 persian, spanish and the 2 asian subcontinental languages i knew are almost gone from my memory.....ghujarati and sindhi.so those dont count......ican only understand and write basic sentences......wouldnt be able to follow a complex conversation

.........man i suck
