I chose to learn French and Spanish at school for GCSE, and then followed up with French until AS Level before realising I wasn't that good at it.

Basically this! :D

I took Spanish, which I was good at, but I dropped it for my senior year. I have a very limited knowledge of German from distant relatives outside the US.

I took Spanish for a year and a half - which is funny because I was supposed to take it for three. Somehow my transcripts got misinterpreted and the difference between a yearly class system and a semester class system worked in my benefit.

I took French for a year and didn't really care for it. I'm going into my second year of Spanish and I like it so far. I'd like to learn Italian since my dad's side is Italian.

Learning Turkish at my school. Such a useless language.

I've been personally looking into how to speak Spanish for about a week, and I'm taking my first Spanish class next year.

French is mandatory in Scotland until 15, and I wanted to take German, but the school didn't offer it. I'm now learning it on my own, with the help of Memrise. (http://memrise.com) It's really good, and is helping me learn some basic phrases.

Obviously English, but I also took four years of French, two of Spanish, seven of Mandarin Chinese, six of Japanese, and am self-studying several other languages on my own.

Took Spanish all my life as well as grew up around it, took English all my life as well as grew up around it.
I'm not in school anymore, but I self-study Spanish and Portuguese.
Bom día. Eu gosto de falar Portugues.
Edit: I was also around and took Japanese when I was little, but I haven't done anything about it since I was 16 or so, maybe even younger than that
Edit edit: also, since Alex mentioned it, I guess Ruby, CSS, JavaScript, and HTML count

I will study Italian for eight years, now it's my 6th year finished, I suck at it, they enforce grammar and not conversation skills but expect us to know them.
English for twelve years
Studied Latin for two years, not particularly good at it.
I would like to study German
I am starting a course from Farsi this September
Slowly learning Hungarian

My native language is Polish, but I learn English, Spanish and a bit Latin (my school cares about tradition so much and everyone has Latin classes, I bet we're the only school in the city - there are about 30 high schools - where students learn it).
In the future I'd like to learn French, Italian and Swedish.

I would have picked up bahasa melayu in secondary school given a second chance, I qualified for it, and looking back it would have been a very useful skill to learn given that there are many native speakers around me and in my neighbouring country Malaysia. I tried to learn Japanese for a few months and it was easier for me because I already know Mandarin so I could understand kanji, but I can't read kanji, it's completely different from Chinese pronunciation. Also Japanese sentence structure is so complex. I still want to learn it, but I have other priorities at hand.

None since I finished school.
I'd learn French if I wasn't this lazy.

took french for a while, but in ontario it becomes optional in grade 10 and I personally found most of my french classes to be a waste of my time so I probably won't have any more classes on it

I found it surprising that more people learnt Spanish than English and French. The language I speak is English and I learn French at school

I'd seriously like to learn all languages! However, I think I'm going to stick with Sign Language and Spanish.

I'm learning French and I am B2 in it so I am not fluent yet. In college I might want to study Portuguese or Russian as a minor because they offer a scholarship for studying uncommonly taught languages.

I'm already forced to learn German French and English, could've added Spanish but I didn't feel like I would need it.
