Two: English and American.

My school couldn't be arsed with Spanish, so we did German and French. I used to be able to speak German quite well, but after my final exam my brain dumped of what I had learned into the bin. I can remember a few words and choice sentences though.

Ironically, the only French sentence I can remember is "I hate the French"...

So 3 for speaking well:
English
Nerd
1337 (Arguably a form of Nerd, once called 'Noob')

and 4 for understanding to a fair degree or better:
English
German
Nerd
1337

3; Swedish and English being the ones I'm fluent in. My girlfriend is from Denmark (although she is also fluent in Swedish) so I've learned Danish too, although I'm not fluent in it I can at least talk about most things.

Heh, English -and its subtypes if you include my being Scottish, or putting on a daft English accent-, French -oh how I loath myself-, (bad) Russian - via boredom-, and Scots Gaelic (but don't tell my mates that, they like thinking their smart when they noise my up by speaking it). =P
