      English and bad English! Sometimes when I’m talking about my work people think I’m talking a different language

      I only really speak English. I know bits of Spanish and French (enough to get directions or order food). My girlfriend is Greek so I am learning that now, though.

      Sadly, only English. I know a few words of French from school, and I can count to ten in Gaelic, which is the native language of the Scottish Highlands and Islands. My mum and many of my family speak fluent Gaelic, and there is an attempt to get more young people speaking it in Scotland.

      I studied French at school, but have never been able to speak it very well. I have picked up a little bit of Welsh – just words that my kids bring back from school, and what we sing in my choir.
