<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Milesofwho, post: 3047813, member: 91469&quot;]I speak English natively, and am learning classical Latin currently. I plan to learn classical Greek as well. Through my research I know the Greek alphabet (upper and lowercase), most of the Russian alphabet (that is, any letters that are derived from Greek, I become clueless when it gets Glagolitic). I know two words in Russian, Спасибо (thank you) and яблоко (apple). To show you how much I don’t know about Russian, I didn’t even know how to spell the words, only how to say them. I know some Chinese characters (and by extension some Japanese Kanji), but they are mostly restricted to various dynasty and reign titles and a cursory Tong Bao. I know all the Chinese numbers. The only Chinese characters I can truly translate is 明 (Ming, meaning “bright”) and 通 (Bao, meaning “treasure”). The rest all mean nothing to me in English. I took one year of Spanish but what I have learned has deserted me. However, I have found I am able to guess at the meaning of a Spanish word a bit better since I started taking Latin. Latin does help a bit in that regard, because it gives it some practical use. I always have figured that once I am finished with Latin I would like to learn Italian. Anyway, what I am really trying to say is that I know bits and pieces of some languages, but full languages are currently not on my radar as of yet except for Latin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
