I speak 69 languages, which makes me cunnilingual.

Actually, I can hold more than a basic conversation in Spanish, but would stop short of describing myself as fluent.

I took 4 years of Spanish in high school but don't really remember that much of it. I'd love to do Rosetta stone but it's really expensive. Anyone have any experience with it?

I took Spanish and Amish in HS. Passed Spanish, flunked Amish. No biggie. Amish wasn't required anyway.
