I am at the point of being able to read Greek, introduce myself, ask and respond to "how are you" and how to say "I am still learning Greek can we speak English". haha

jag lära svenska för många år sedan. but never been any more motivated so my skill is very limited.

I learned to read cyrilic last year because I had to read some papers about central asian history written in russian, but I didn't learn russian.

while at that, I found out that hangeul is a very simple writing system and it is, I figured it out immediately but I still had to look up the tables to write. russian cyrilic is still more intuitive to write. But I also didn't learn korean.

تعلمت اللغة العربية 10 سنوات. But then I never use arabic anymore. It's pretty cool somtimes to be able to read arabic writing and calligraphy. I used to won several arabic calligraphy contest.

and then I also can understand 2 local languages when people around talk, but I can't speak it well.

Basically I never get motivated enough to be good at anything even in everything not just language :/
