What's your native tongue?

Following the posts on Fou-Lu's thread about English I got to wondering how many people here had English as their second language.
So, if your native language is not English, could you post and tell us what your first language is?
In fact if your native language is English but you're fluent in another language it would also be interesting to know.
PS: For all the smarties out there, C++, PureBasic and other computer languages don't count.

I was born in Oz although I spoke nothing but Hungarian for the first 6 years.
Sooo, I speak Hungarian first (and it is getting rusty from lack of use).
I also speak English (Upper Class London and Cockney), American (southern george bush and American Negro variant) and Australian (Melbourne upperclass and bush cockie).
A little Italian (around 3 foot 2. Could not find a taller one.)
10 words of Japanese.
2 words of Chinese.
And also fluent in bullshit. In fact, that is my best language!!!
Was studying kiwi at some stage but couldnt get the sheep to stay still

Aight I thought we agreed about not adding programming languages!
You're grounded...
Do you guys realize that some of us knows more programming languages than spoken languages?
I feel nerdy now..
