i am fluent in Hebrew and English. learned french in high school but haven't touched it since. pretty much forgot it.
Fluent in Dutch and English, German is a bit rusty. I know enough French to know what people are talking about.
Sometimes I wonder - those of you who grew up in areas of the world (Europe) where being bilingual, or trilingual is fairly common, does it amaze you (or even bother you) that in the US, some people go to college simply to major in a second language? That is, they graduate, and their college degree basically means that they're now bilingual - and they use this as a marketable skill.
