Ah, ancient languages from way back at the beginning of time (digital computer time). No Basic?

My native tongue is English (American version), and since I grew up in the southwest US I speak some Spanish (Mexican version).

which isn't SPOKEN I'm just saying, the OP asked what languages you speak. I too know many programming languages... but none of them are spoken languages.

 

[usayit]

i didn't realize that computer languages were considered spoken languages... Geeks!!!

I'm am probably the only person in my work place that only speaks one language; American English.... Sad, very sad, but languages just never came naturally to me. I do understand Tagalog and Ilonggo but never developed the speech side of my brain for it.

I can code a few languages though... often feel more natural than even written english. Lately mostly focused on java, spring framework, RAP, shell scripts. I don't really consider those languages within the context of what is being discussed here.

English, English, English, and don't let me forget to include that I speak English.
