Whose first language isn't English? (teach, lessons, Hungarian)

[viribusunitis]

German. Central Bavarian dialect. Eastern variety spoken in Linz.

[Urania93]

Italian, that is my first language.
Then I also studied some English at school. I'm not so much into foreign languages

[Marmel]

Russian.
Started to learn English at school at the age of 10.

[Max96]

Mine is Russian. Kharkiv is in Ukraine, but the first language of most its natives is Russian, not Ukrainian. Just like most other cities in Eastern Ukraine, though.

[Catbelle]

Mine is Spanish.
I started studying English at the age of 7 at school, I want to learn more to make my English almost perfect.

I suppose it would depend on whether your first language was the first language you spoke as a child or the language you speak most commonly now.

As a child? English until I was 18.
Since then? French has been by far the language I've spoken most (27yrs).

I can still remember the first time I found myself thinking in French rather than (auto)translating it from English.

[Ariete]

Swedish and Finnish. English third.

[lexdiamondz1902]

French Creole & English Creole are my mother tongues, I learnt Standard English & French in school and Spanish in my neighbourhood & from relatives.

[kikebxl]

Spanish is my mother tongue. Then I can speak English, French, Italian more or less ok and a bit of Portuguese, Galician, Catalan, Dutch and German.

Spanish/Castellano (as well as Ecuabarbarismo = Ecuadorian slang ).
Long ago, I was able to converse and understand basic Korean, I knew enough to sit and watch Korean soap operas...but that's another story for another time
