I have an intermediate knowledge of English: at least I am able to read non-technical material and understand it well, save some words or expressions that I need the help of a good dictionary to understand. My speaking and listening skills are poorer, because of the lack of practice and because I still think in Portuguese before answering!

I have a very basic knowledge of German, a knowledge that allows me to understand very simple texts and sentences. in short, material for beginners.
I've been studying an ASSIMIL german book in an irregular fashion...
My pronunciation seems to be good - that was what a german class professor said to me

I have a very basig knowledge of Attic Greek (the Greek dialect that was spoken in the Greece in the V and IV centuries B.C.E., in Athens and its surroundings).

I know the sounds and letters of Hungarian.

And finally, a very basic knowledge of standard Mandarin. I've been studying the Hanyu Pinyin romanization system and the Zhuyin Fuhao, as well as the pronunciation of the Initials and Finals.
After that I will struggle with the tones and ideograms of the simplified Chinese.

I have a very good material of German, Attic Greek and Mandarin at home and I study them more or less twice a week.

I speak English for a long time now (7 years or more). I wouldn't say it's perfect, especially because I'm a little without practice (I read and hear English everyday, but I don't speak).

I've been studying French for about 4 months. I can read/write, but I find it hard to understand what they're saying (I've been watching TV5 Monde to improve it).

I've attended some Japanese classes, but I remember only the basics. I'm concentrating more in the Neolatin languages, then I study the Asiatics.

This year I'm going to study Spanish also. I never know wether I'm speaking it or “Portuñol”, so I'll try to overcome this.

I'm fluent in English and Portuguese

A little English, un petit peu de Francais e um pouco de português.

Ah, espanhol é português com sotaque vai! Todo brasileiro fala. É quase a mesma coisa... Estudar espanhol é jogar dinheiro no lixo e ao mesmo tempo enriquecer o dono do CCAA.

Cara, agora tu falou de um negócio que me incomoda... eu trabalho com isso. Dou aula de Inglês e Espanhol; Inglês, eu já tenho uma boa experiência; mas Espanhol, tem horas que eu fico de saco cheio... É A PORRA DO SOTAQUE..
