Do you speak any other language besides English?

Above.
I did French and Spanish at school, but seeing as I've been to France a grand total of twice, and never spoke a word of French (most people on the Continent are fluent in English these days), and never been to Spain and probably never will, I forgot most of both.
Regarding UK regional dialects though, obviously I am fluent in broad Yorkshire, I am also fluent in Mancunian and Scouse.
I could also socialise with a Japanese person as I know hello and goodbye "Konichi Wa" and "Sayonara" respectively, and can count to 10 in Japanese, from way back when I used to be a Karate student "Ichi, Ni, San, Shi, Go, Ro, Shi, Hach, Ku, Ju"
And basic Korean from my TKD training.
Oh and intermediate Klingon lol, "Qapla!"
How about you guys? Do you speak any other lingo?
