    @Spinnifix what I nice topic, I didn't know about this Day, thanks for informing, I speak 3 languages very good, can watch TV, read, write letters without translate but with some mistake, a practice it's here a lot.

    In my country you learn and have to speak 3 language: Dutch, French and German. But my English is better then French because of my youth and listen to that music an writing from my 14y in 4 languages. French is the love language ❀.

    And I know 1extra languages Spanish but only words, if I practice it's more, i can maybe really make whole sentence, but they so many dialects. But in every country I go, Europe, outside Europe I always have a dictionary and try to speak to language of the country. But some languages are almost impossible. But then I show my dictionary. I went more then 15 times to France now and the people are chauvinist they only speak French and don't want to speak another language.

    We must try to learn as many languages so we can communicate with each other especially people outside of πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

    Hello Peggy @Spinnifix πŸ‘‹

    I love your post. The languages of this world are beautiful to listen to. ❀️

    In talking with you I have learned a lot about translating text. Thank you for the help and opportunity to learn translations. I am still learning and may continue to call on you for help.

    In text we miss the wonderful beauty of the spoken word !! πŸ˜€

    Thank you for sharing

    One day, as technology increases and our learning expands we may be able to listen to languages in their own tongue and be translated so we can understand

    My kind regards, Glenn

    Hello and welcome

    You are a fun guy. There is no single European language. Do you know the continent of Europe and so it is with languages. One continent has many countries and there are many languages.πŸ˜‰

    Hello dear Glenn

    I have a translator on my tablet. I can speak in German and he translates it into the language I want and it is played back as a sound. That's great. You don't necessarily have to write. Thanks for your nice words and it means a lot to me. next week I'll make a new post about it.πŸ˜‰πŸ’“πŸ’“

    The EU has 24Β official languages, of which three (English,Β FrenchΒ andΒ German) have the higher status of "procedural" languages of the European commission.

    All 24 official languages of the EU are accepted asΒ working languages.

    The most widely understood language in the EU is English.
