I've heard only English for a few months*; I live in one of the very few areas of the UK
where there are very few foreigners. *obviously I've heard material from language programs but not in everyday life. Edited by BBOS on 07 August 2009 at 9:31pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I went to Sydney on the weekend. Some of these are guess but I'm pretty sure about a lot of them.
Mandarin Cantonese Korean Thai/Lao Vietnamese Hindi and maybe Tamil? Greek Italian Spanish Arabic Turkish Spanish Latvian or Lithuanian Russian and possibly Croatian/Bosnian/Serbian I also heard other languages which I have no clue about. When I go to university in Sydney, I wish to move closer to the city, about 1 hour out. It's really a polyglot's dream. I'm not a polyglot yet but I do have the dream! :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

English cos I'm English and people speak to me in it.
Dutch cos I'm in Holland. Frisian because I like to have a little look at the Frisian channel every now and then. I may hear German later because my housemate is German and listens to the radio in his kitchen. 1 person has voted this message useful | |
