Nairaland est une plateforme nigeriane ou plusieurs rubriques sont discutes et des idees partagees No podemos mas pretender que no tenemos problemas en Nigeria. Debemos actuar! O portugues e um lengua falada em varios paises do mundo como brasil e portugal. Now, if you understood these short writings in french, spanish and portuguese respectively without turning to Google translator, then you are truly a polyglot. Polyglots are people who have mastery over many languages. They are people with uncommon passion for languages as they spend most of their time glued to their grammar books or practising a new language. I caught the bug of learning languages by learning french some years back. I have since discovered that acquiring languages is my passion and talent and I have committed my time and resources to learning all major European languages plus Arabic including Mandarin Chinese which I just started learning. Fellow Polyglot Nairalanders, share your languages and your experiences with them.

I wouldn't say I am multilingual exactly but...
I can write and understand Spanish really well, Speak Patois, English, Nigerian Pidgin
and trying to learn Portuguese as well as a few other African dialects/languages.

I would say 2 and a half, since I don't consider pidgin a language but a dialect. I speak Yoruba, and English fluently. I

took some french lessons back in school but I'm not fluent though, Oh and i know a couple of hindi,bengali, arabic, urdu, twi, and swahili

words (through friends). and i can say hi and bye in spanish Those are pretty much my experience with languages,

they are very complex I must say. My main goal is to learn 2 other nigerian languages before I turn 30. *crossing fingers on that*

Bien; pues entonces recibe mis saludos!
Yo hablo Español, Francés, Catalán, Gallego y Portugués.
Ojalá algún día yo pueda hablar yorubá.
No hablo una sóla palabra de inglés LOL!
Un fuerte abrazo a todos, queridos amigos!
