all over the world, where spanish is spoken, it seems that they speak waaay too fast!

I was in paraguay and argentina a month ago and even though I don't speak spanish, I can still understand it, since I speak portuguese, but my friend, who is fluent in spanish also, said that he could barely understand them... they spoke waaay too fast..

but yeah, I speak portuguese, english and italian! tryna learn german now! and then french!
 
The only language I speak fluently is English. I took 2 years of German in high school but I don't remember much since I have rarely had a chance to speak it over the years. Made an attempt at Hungarian a decade ago but again it's rare to find someone that speaks it so I've forgotten most of it, and can muddle my way through easy Spanish if push comes to shove.
 
I speak Serbian/Croatian/Montenegrin/Bosnian (long story, too much politics), English and a bit of Italian. I actually study linguistics, English language and literature, and take classes for Italian.
