Are you serious? How did you come to that conclusion? Everyone who went to school when I did, before we became a... multi-cultural country, had to learn it. So don't go making assumptions when you don't even know the person. Anyway, I'm Irish, so of course I can have an opinion on our language, whether I can speak it or not...
English
Afrikaans (not fluent anymore, been too long) & Dutch (too similar to class as two entirely separate languages)
Zulu (see Afrikaans )
Bits and bobs of German from years ago.
Greek (and the local Cretan dialect)
English
Rusty French
Hilarious Spanish - Spanish friends still use some of my made-up words
Basic German
In and out of learning Turkish thanks to a neighbor of mine and some Arabic swearing, thanks to another neighbor of mine - oh... and a whole slew of Yiddish exclamations and silly sayings, thanks to yet another neighbor of mine. At some point I was getting down with leaning Bulgarian via a colleague, but sadly he left before we got to getting the vocabulary a bit richer.
English,
Norwegian - funny im the first one to Type this, and im not of
this Nationality
Moderate French.
Random Army Commands in German.
Can sing in Slovenian (Naredi Da Mi Pride)
Can sing in Swedish too.
And Can give abuse in Finnish, and in all languages of the above
What more do you want!?
English I can write and read, but not speak really, I can read words and output them as finglish but it is often not too helpful when other persons excepts english, I should really work on that.
Then Finnish I can speak, sometimes listen (mostly not according to relatives) of course read and write too.
Then I can speak my made up language that I talk with other big red and small green rabbits but that is a secret
Should give you an idea of what a C grade GCSE in German means. Can't even remember what the word for small is. I only really learnt "Meine kuli ist kaput", was enough to get out of work.
Apolgies for what is most likely appaling German; I'll stick to English.
