What is your Home Language?



----
After a few seconds of insanity I decided NOT to make a poll out of this subject.
Most adventure games use English. We've seen a few German, Deutch and French games, but does it really represent all the players out there??

Well... me first:

Afrikaans

In my country, we have four official languages - English, Mandarin, Malay and Tamil. We also have an unofficial language - Singlish (mixture of mainly English, Malay and Hokkien [Chinese dialect]). Most of us can switch between English and Singlish, and these two are pretty much my home languages.

Romanian. And contrarily to what most people think, we do not have a russian accent, nor do we use the chirilic alphabet. Romanian is a Romance language. Probably the reason why I understand quite  few Latin and Spanish words. I also speak English fluently and French...not so fluently. And those few Japanese phrases I learned reading "Shogun".

I also type fluent l33t. W00t 4 m3!!!111one

Out of curiosity, why are they referred to as Romance languages? I don't think it has to do with being romantic, so I'm assuming it has to do with Rome.

You assume correctly. And I suspect "Romance language" is a term invented by some American. OMG, you guys rock!  <_<
