I speak Latin (fairly good at it when I last took it but rusty). French (horrible French barely counts as being able to speak it.) and a little bit of Japanese and Spanish.

Think Lion King:

Hakuna=none or nothing

Matata=problem or trouble

Simba=lion

Rafiki, the prophetic monkey=friend

Shenzi, the leader of the hyenas=umm........... sh!t

Kweli=really, or truly...as in 'sh!t ni shenzi kweli'

Some Slavic languages are similar. My home language is Croatian, but Bosnian and Serbian are very similar (Serbian uses cirilic, if you learned it as I, 18 years ago, when Yugoslavia was still a state then you have no problem). Slovakian, Macedonian and Czech I can fairly understand, but not speak. Besides that I can speak English and understand German and Latin. I have even learned (ancient) Greek, and studied (unsuccesfuly) Turkish and Arabic. :arrow:

Yeah, I'm always enthralled when I walk by someone in the grocery store and realize, "Holy moly! That guy was speaking Nahuatl!"

When I lived in the Pacific Northwest I heard more Mayan. A couple of years ago, my job involved a study of Guatemalan poultry workers in the US. Lots of schools in rural Mississippi and North Carolina now have ESL classes specifically for Mayan-speaking children, the poultry workers' kids.
