Native English

Lower end of intermediate: Otali Cherokee

Could learn better if immersed: Zinacantan Tzotzil Maya

Could/want to learn more of: Qosqo Quechua, Nahuatl (Dialect[s] unknown)

Am aging much quicker than many, so attaining new information is fairly difficult (But may prove helpful to some, I hope, 😁 ).

I speak English, Spanish, and Italian. I am trying to learn classical Latin because when I was in grad school I didn’t pay attention because I didn’t need it. After that, I want to learn Old Norse and Ancient Greek.

To set the right example:

I speak dutch (native); english (fluent); german, spanish, portuguese, french, esperanto (good); italian (adequate); russian (slightly below adequate); mandarin chinese (basic); arabic (very poorly)

I’m learning mostly russian and chinese, for many years already, but not in any formal setting and with for many years already. I like reading books in the other languages to keep them up.
