My Ride: F02 LCI Individual
Model Year: 2013
Had a lot of different languages in school:
English, French, Russian, Latin, Greek. Have been in South Africa very often so I can understand a little Afrikaans, if spoken slowly, and also I understand a little Dutch, if spoken slowly.
Born in Germany I speek German, but because of my work (travel agency and NFL) I used to speek so much English, that I sometimes speek a better English than German. I often say: I'm an American born in the wrong country... :winkcool:
Feel more American than German.
Car details below.

My Ride: 528i
Model Year: 2011
Language: American. (Does that count as English?)
A little bit of German but as I tell my German partners, If you speak three languages you are tri-lingual. If you speak two, you are bi-lingual and if you speak one, you are American.
