English, French, and German, although to be honest my French and German are so rusty I wouldn't trust myself to tell you the time in them these days.

Vingt trois heures et sept minute.

I speak French well enough that Parisians want to speak to me in English. :)

I can read German mathematics, but mostly by reading the math.

English > French > Chinese > Spanish >> German

English mostly. Like many Anglo Australians, since we're somewhat uniquely challenged in properly learning alternative languages if we don't get that education via our families.
(Just hard to immerse yourself in other languages here)

I got pretty decent at Tok Pisin (Pidjin) when living in Papua New Guinea, and still retain a little of that.
Had a few words, sentences and phrases in Swedish, most of which I've lost now.

English and stiff but functional Japanese. Trying to relearn some lost casualness before husband and I take our trip there.

I know a hint of Spanish, and have forced myself into learning some English. My native language in Brazilian Portuguese, albeit with an unusual vocabulary.
