Danish - the language of Denmark
Dutch - the language of the Netherlands

Two easily confused but vastly different languages.

Haha, thats awesome! I'd love to learn how to sign that... even just what "bitch" is in ASL. Besides, how many people would you be saying that to who could really tell the difference?

Are you really going to try and tell me I don't know what country I've been visiting for the last 18 years? First of all, dutch is not deutch, or dansk. My mom grew up in the german minority in Denmark. She grew up bilingual, had family living in both southern Denmark and Northern Germany, and when we all go to family reunions, one half of the family can't understand the other half (and I can't understand any of them).

Also, what do you mean by your signature? It's translates to "to give others the likelyhood (sp?) of dying for their country". But it's not even a complete sentence.

I like how you have Hmong as obscure. Where I live, it's probably the third most-spoken language.

Languages:
1. Latin
2. Greek
3. German
4. French
5. Norweigian

I know English and too much Spanish (Though I am by NO MEANS fluent... VERY far from it) for it to be considered new...

I can do one form of hand communication but it's not ASL and it's rather limited in application (police and military applications primarily)

1. German-my mom's family is from germany (and denmark), and it woudl be nice to actually be able to speak to people at the family reunions...
2.Danish- same reason
3.Mandarin Chinese- I'd immediately be able to speak to like a 6th of the people in the world. How could i resist? Also, I love chinese food, and I bet the owners at the local chinese restaurant would think it was cool to have someone ordering their food in the right language!
4. Navajo- that would just be awesome.
5.ASL- I didn't even think of it until i saw it on clpo's list, but i already knew a few signs and have tried to learn more in the past. Sweetness.
