I... suppose I should introduce myself if I'm new, right? That'd be the polite thing to do.

My name is Kisara and I'm not that interesting, I promise. I also apologize if we meet in person and my English is a bit... rusty, it's not my first language and I'm still working on some words and phrases that are a little strange when translated. Not that... we don't have anything weird when translated from my native language, too.

With... that out of the way, is there any particular languages that are spoken here frequently other than obviously French and English? I didn't get to travel much before here so I'm always curious about how other countries are?

I'm rambling, sorry. Just wanted to do that introduction and apologize in advance?

English has too many words.

[Part of this perception may, in fact, be from having a 5 year old's vocabulary for the last while.]

I'm Reira. There's lots of countries in books but I think the places called 'outlands' have more.

I don't know why it's all called 'the outlands', everything is different in 'the outlands'.

Japanese, German, and Spanish are fairly common on campus.

There is no need to apologize.

Don't worry much about it. A lot of us slip up with languages around here, so you won't be alone in making mistakes sometimes. I still have problems with Japanese, and that's my first language.

Speaking of that, Japanese seems to be a pretty common language around here. As is German.

And oh yeah, you can call me "Gunvolt" or "GV," whichever you prefer. Good to meet you!

[His profile will list his actual first name as "Gustav," of course, but the nickname's definitely what he seems to prefer.]

It is a pleasure to meet you, Kisara. I am Grimm Lavoie.

There are quite a variety of languages within the school. It's quite fascinating! But aside from English and French, it appears to be Japanese that is most commonly used.

What language do you speak, my friend?

You speak Arabic? You're English is a lot better than you think. Colloquialisms/Slang are the part that mess people up the most because then words mean something totally different than they were intended to.

I speak English, French and Japanese, but I'm teaching myself German and Spanish right now.

[As many languages as possible to bridge the communication gaps.]
