I haven't got 0 down...as some Americans I have met can only grunt
German. And some spanish
The only language I'm fluent in is English. I know some French, enough to carry on a conversation with a 5 year old...lol...no...enough to get by semi-okay :) But we definitely need a better education system in regards to languages. In other countries they begin to learn foreign languages when they are very young...here we wait until high school when it is a log harder to learn languages.
I only speak one but then again, it isn't really that important to me. That being said I don't really think that means I'm ignorant, I'd wager to bet that I'm better educated than most who speak more than one language.
Puedo hablar español y inglés. I can speak Spanish and English.

And that should be espanol e ingles, not espanol y ingles, since ingles begins with an I. I'm still working on my Spanish, so bare with me.

The U.S. has tens of millions of immigrants, nearly all at least bilingual. For instance, California alone has a population with millions who can speak English along with Chinese, Spanish, Japanese, and many other languages.
