I speak Romanian, English, German, mediocre French and beginner Swedish. For a new language, Russian, Japanese and Hebrew.
For a nice language-related story: in my Swedish course this year, everyone but me was German (the teacher doesn't count) and for the first few weeks no one suspected a thing. I was both amused and o_O at someone not figuring out my terrible accent (I roll my 'r', apparently a no-no in German).
