    I speak Arabic. I'm not a native English speaker, so that makes English my second language :D. I can't really judge myself. I'll choose the second option.

    I guess I should anser my own question, eh?
    I'm a native english speaker, just like everyone in Ireland apart from those born in gaelteacht areas, and their numbers are few. I also speak good irish, a fair bit of german, and I'm learning japanese. I like learning new languages. Remember: the more languages you know, the more universaly you can be obnoxious. I also am fluent in 1337 and igpay atinray, but that's not a tremendous acclompmishment.
    One more thing. Gaelic isn't the proper name for any language. There are several languages that could be classified as that. Just call it Irish, or if you want to be exotic, Gaeilge.

    LOL! my first language is portuguese(brazilian), but like phox-chan said, i've been exposed to english very soon... i have a kind of a base on a lot of language, since my parents speaks a lot of different languages... hum... i choose the first option, i study at american school, all my teachers are americans(see my first thread)are in english(duh!), so of it's normal the fact i can speak really good english... but it's more hard write than speak...

    Did someone noted that ff.net is down AGAIN?!

    hugs

    I got a higher grade in English than in Arabic. That shows you that Arabic is really hard!!
    For me the hardest thing is the grammer. There is alot of rules >.< For ex: A5awat kana <-- I completely have forgotten it.

    My mother tongue is Japanese. I can speak standard Japanese and Kansai dialect.

    I've been studying English for 10 years:)

    I started to learn Korean:) It's much easier than English:)
    My fave phrase is 'Quenchanayo!'
