Yes, Klingon counts.
I'm also curious as to which ones. Is English your first language? Second language? Maybe you don't even speak english properly. With about half the users of this site being beyond just the United States, I'm interested in how that effects the multitude of languages in the community. Hell even some of the United States users would probably know more than one language.
I, personally, am only fluent in English. I've taken a good bit of French in school, but I definitely wouldn't say I could keep up in conversation with a fluent person. I've also taken a small bit of German, but I barely have a grasp on it.
Inquiring minds want to know, Giant Bomb. How are you linguistically?
How Many Languages Can You Speak?
Two languages - Polish and English with English being the second one. I can't find a way to fit "it scared the dick out of me" phrase here. Damn.

My native language, Dutch.
English, obviously.
French, un petit peu
German, Sehr gut
Used to 'speak' a bit of Latin at school, but that was more than 6 years ago.
I meant that I can't fit it to this specific thread. If you look at my recent posts, you can find a specific pattern in them. Special thanks go to Steve Blum." @CaptainObvious said:

Just the one, but I am a certified beginner in Polish, even though I don't remember anything from the lessons.
- Arabic - my tongue
- Hebrew - supposed to be my 2nd language, but i hate it
- English - adopted as my second language <3 sexiest lang in the world
If you're a loner, or had many foreign girlfriends, you can speak (read) a lot of languages. You read Russian love letters and claim to be understanding Pessoa in Portuguese, maybe to seem more of a loner to a foreign girl who wants to be your girlfriend. "Of course, I read Strindberg in Swedish, lads," but you only know enough Deutsch to have read a few Dürrenmatt plays that are somewhat related.
For myself, I only know English. I can read Cioran and Artaud in French. Who couldn't? And Borges wrote the best books for shelves, please put Spanish on the list, too.
Yes.
Seven, but five of them are Lunar languages. The other two are English and a bit of French, although I am trying (poorly) to learn Japanese (don't laugh, damn you!).

And if you did learn it, why the hell would you learn such a miserable language? :P
