1.Swedish
2.English
3.German (fairly well)
4. Can understand Norwegian and Danish (based on similarities between languages and swedish) but cannot speak the languages.
5.A bit of Spanish.
 
People should really list the language they are fluent in, knowing how to order beer in German does not mean you can speak German or even have conversational standard in German.
 
5:

Dutch - Good
Polish - Good
English - Okay
German - More or less
French - not really that well but I'll have to follow French lessons the next 2 years again so I guess I'll re-learn ( been a year since I last had French)
 
Born a Cantonese speaker growing up in Hong Kong, forgotten half of it. I can still more or less understand it, but I struggle when people speak quickly. Mostly down to the fact that I'm not in touch with anyone who speaks it anymore.
I can still read some of the Chinese menus at takeaways as well, but I think I'm down to about 1/4 reading ability now.

Been speaking English since I was 15.

I've been thinking (and dreaming) in English since I was about 16 probably. Apparently I've ditched the old Chinese accent, but I know I still got a bit of a twank here and there. Somehow developed a bit of a southern accent while I was living in Wales, and also picking up a Brummie one from an authentic source.

So in conclusion, 1 and 1/2.
