O.P. Learning Languages at school!
Have you taken a language for GCSE or A level or have you already taken one?

I have taken french for GCSE, and i know a little bit of German. When i went on holiday to a German speaking country, although i was not fluent, what i had picked up in lessons really helped me!

REMEMBER YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE FLUENT FOR A LANGUAGE TO BENEFIT YOU!

Anyway what languages can you speak or have taken for a GCSE or A-level???

Even if I hardly have a clue what GSCE or A-levels are (I know that they represent in Finnish education, no need to lecture), I'd still like to answer. Hey, it's a decent chit-chat thread for once!

I speak fluent Swedish, Finnish and English, studied German for 3 years, but I wouldn't even tell anyone I know it. I've also taken Russian for A-level, and I still study it (4th year at the moment).

just the one for me

French at GCSE, AS and A Level.

I'm still pretty good at it today, I have a few french speaking friends so I kinda keep it up that way, plus my brother and sister both study/studied it too so I helped them out

Estonian - as mother tongue (Estonian children do learn it at school too, that's why unlike English people we can spell in our own language quite well! :p).
English - on high level (studied English philology in uni and am now studying translation, and English is the language I translate from).
Russian - on basic level (studied it all through primary and secondary school and by now I've forgotten most of what I've learnt).
Spanish - on very basic level (1 year of studying).

I took German at GCSE, was boring but better than French. Option blocks for my GCSEs were shit, infact education in this country generally seems pretty borked in structure.
