I was once fluent in Spanish, but have lost a lot over the years.  It got me wanting to pick up another language, so I have started learning German.

English (native)

German (limited working proficiency)

Spanish (elementary proficiency)

 

P.S., I'm doing this for work.

1.5

English - Native

Spanish / Finnish - About .25 for each which means I can make my way around the country and easily request a beer or the location of the nearest bathroom. Lost a lot over the years from not using either. 

I also am fluent in speaking New Jersey but not sure that counts.

My dad can have a conversation in over half a dozen languages that I know of (English, German, Portuguese, Spanish, Afrikaans, Thai, Dutch with some French and Indonesian) but he didn't pass any on to me.

 

I've lost most of by German speaking abilities and I'm currently working on getting Portuguese from an elementary to a conversational level. But for now, just one language.

I should know Spanish seeing as how my mom is Puerto Rican, but it's never kept with me.  I was decent at one point and time, but if you don't continue speaking it...  it's true, if you don't use it, you lose it.

I've thought about getting Rosetta Stone a few times over the past couple of years to learn again.  Has anyone ever had success with the Rosetta Stone system?
