Hi ilovestrategy
Yo, it is great to hear that you and your wife speak many languages[:D]. It is really rare nowadays. Hope your children speak some too! Although my father and me speak Chinese dialects, my daughter only speaks English and Mandarin (examined in Singapore schools). Guess, my father and me are the "Last of the Mohicans"[:(][;)]
Cheers!

i speak English and Tagalog. My wife, a filipino, speaks English, Tagalog and 3 local dialects all 5 as if she grew up in that particular area. I still dont see how she does it.
