Well, I can safely say I'm bilingual, if not trilingual. I was just wondering if any of you were also. I assume that most of you would actually know a second language. and it'd be interesting to see who speaks what.

Another question, along with the first. What language do you think in?

Heres me:
I speak Romanian, English, and French (mostly school). I think in english, but when thinking of numbers (i.e math) I think in Romanian. weird huh?

English and then German. My German still isn't that great but I can get by so far...at least by speaking it. I still have to do math in english, mostly because in german they reverse the numbers and that doesn't help me in math at all.

Interestingly enough, I've actually made a deal with someone to make a german version of his site and have a profit sharing deal. This seems pretty great to me and certainly shows the ways being bilingual can help you in business.. even on the internet.
