        <blockquote><p>Do you speak another language? If not, which language do you wish you spoke fluently? </p></blockquote>
<p>
seems like i&#39;ve answered this question before, or one similar to it.&#160; yup, here&#39;s the <a href="http://gamany.vox.com/library/post/qotd-speak-to-me-in.html">post</a>.</p><p>anyway,
i speak korean, though not fluently.&#160; i&#39;ve been making more of an
effort to speak it around my mom or her friends so i can learn more of
the language.&#160; at some point i&#39;d like to know enough where i can have
longer conversations with our family in korea instead of the usual,
&quot;hi, how are you?&#160; your voice sounds the same...oh, i&#39;m doing well...no
i&#39;m not married...no i don&#39;t have kids....no i&#39;m not dating...i miss
you, too.&#160; i love you.&quot;&#160; all spoken in korean of course.&#160; if i were fluent in the language, i&#39;d have more control over the conversation topics.</p>   <p style="clear:both;">

        <blockquote><p>How many languages can you speak?&#160; Which languages can you read or understand?<br /></p></blockquote><p>I
speak, read and understand English by default :)&#160; Around my mom
and her friends, I occasionally speak Korean but not fluently.&#160; I
understand it more than I can actually speak it but never learned to
read or write it.&#160; It&#39;s funny when I&#39;m out at a Korean restaurant
and respond to the server in Korean--people around us stare and get
weirded out like &quot;crap, was she listening in?&quot;&#160; Oh, and I studied
Latin for years but it&#39;ll take me hours to translate a line or two of
text =\<br />
