Prince – all vocals, all instruments

I’ve a mate that speaks 5/6 and is currently doing his Reo.

A real smart arse !

[Wignu]

I console myself, rather pitifully, with the 'Jack of all trades master of none' saying whilst trying not to think about my inadequacies!

Globus.

[MungoMan]

Globus.

Diplomatic, given this was an opportunity to name&shame those who'd made you deathly ill by visiting you in your professional capacity.

As a Dane he almost certainly speaks Swedish and/or Norwegian as well. They get Swedish television there so they grow up with it.

I dunno how people do it, it just blows my mind. I've been struggling with Swedish for seven f-cking years and still can't have a proper adult conversation in the language.

Most likely speaks German too

I can still understand why he would learn to speak the European languages, but Arabic? Or Catalan?

Sounds like a teacher's pet.

Fu ck him.

[Winnie]

Some people just have their brain wired to be able to speak languages
I'm not one of those people

Its like those cu.nts that are a professional footballer, play golf of scratch, decent at tennis etc
I'm not one of those people either

He'll very likely be able to speak Norwegian, given that it only formally diverged from Danish in the 19thC. And I'd be surprised if he could not speak in German too.

His Spanish sounds South American (Columbia or below) - I'd be interested to know where he picked that up. He certainly sounded very fluent in that, French and of course English, and pretty comfortable in Italian. The Arabic and Catalan speeches sounded "learnt", though with French and Spanish already, the latter would be pretty easy for him.

According Wiki he spent part of his childhood in Venezuela and Argentina

The russians gave me the nickname 'Assassin', because I murdered their language.
