I can do ASL (american sign language) :headbang:

D'oh!  I forgot one semester of ASL, most of which I've forgotten.  :sad:

 

[DangerousR6]

I speak Ebonics.

It's the equal opportunity language.

Yes, but can you speak bilingual ebonics? That is truly equal opportunity language.... :toothy12:

1. American English - Living in a former British colony (Hong Kong), I'm constantly learning the differences between British English and American English. My Scottish friend Colin and I often tackle the insurmountable barrier of a common language. Especially when he gets drunk.

I speak Aussie Strine

:icon_scratch:

 

[Kvebbs]

norwegian, english and theoretically some german haven't used it for years though.... hehe

 

[Rick]

Interesting ...

It seems to me that English is numero uno, with the languages of western europe well represented, followed by the "outlying" languages of the nordics and slavs, with a smattering of east asia. 

It makes sense to me, given that this a guitar site based in North America,  for musicians who make their own guitars.  Let's face it there aint' going to be too many tuarog or afghani speakers (as much as I'd like them to be here).

 

[Superlizard]

I have dabbled a bit with Esperanto as well.

"Crappacino?"

 

[Chris of Arabia]

Proper English, with just enough Arabic to say "It's not happening any time soon"

 

[Mapleg4]

Norwegian.

 

[Kvebbs]

oh, and ofcourse since norwegian is my native language I also understand danish and swedish=) think this goes for alot, if not most, swedes, danes and norwegians... finnish however is impossible for me to understand hehe.. only know a few ugly words that I learned from a finnish metal band I met when I was drunk in London one time...  :headbang1:! hehe... and of course there is "new norwegian" which is the second official language in norway. I hate it just as much as those who speak it hate regular norwegian still both are obligatory in school... that really sucks...!

 

[toronado]

[Unwound G]

British English and various dialects of Chinese.

I occasionally do some consultation work for guitar manufacturers in China and have invented a number of guitar parts terminology over the years which are now part of the vocabulary. Ask any China based shredder what is the term for "Dive Bomb" and most likely he will use the term I invented......... :icon_smile:

[OzziePete]

English with an Or-stray-lian accent! (strine)
Oh, and I can say " I Love You" in Mandarin Chinese (don't ask why  :icon_thumright:  :doh: ).

This had me ROFLI'ng!

I used to work with a guy who was born to Scottish parents, grew up in the East End of London (Cockney) & went eventually to a posh English school that straightened out his accent to a polished Oxford accent.

Seriously, if you went drinking with Don you only had to speak with him to find out how drunk he was.

If you could understand him and he spoke to you in his usual business accent (Oxford), he'd just started drinking. If he spoke to you with a real English Cockney geezer accent he was half way there. And if you didn't understand a damn word of it and he was swearing at you with a Scottish accent, it was time for him to go home!!! ccasion14:

Dammit, thinking about Don (it's been 20 odd years since I saw him last), his personality would change to match the accent too. Sober he was a bit playful but reserved when he needed to be (Oxford English), half sloshed he'd use rhyming slang to sledge people and be a bit flirty (Cockney), and hopelessly drunk he'd want to bed any female or fight the men (Scottish)!
