What language do you speak best?
-
@mattesilver @rauschma It’s rather a cultural thing about privacy, which is why Mastodon is also a GmbH, not the other way around.

@rauschma Chinese
@vux55 普通话还是一个方言？

@rauschma I grew up *almost* bilingual (Dutch/English). I'm completely bilingual for reading, writing and listening, and practically bilingual for speaking (I have a bad all-over-the-world accent in my English).
@irina Leuk!

@rauschma to be fair, je parle français und ich hab' auch ein bisschen Deutsch.
(I'm apparently the perfect Mastodon user lol.)

Boosts appreciated!@rauschma English is my native language, but I also speak Esperanto, French, and Irish.

@fabos You may not see the edit I did a few hours ago: I initially wrote “Mastodon” and then changed it to “Fediverse”.

@rauschma
Other: Teochew.@PhoenixSerenity I recently read about the movie “Dear You” being successful in China—which I found interesting! It’s mainly in Teochew, IIRC.

@rauschma my native language is Romanian
i'm looking forwards to the day where it won't be surprising anymore for native German / French / English speakers to learn that folx with other native language share the same digital space as them ^^ here's to more diversity
@catileptic I recently watched an interview with Sebastian Stan (*) in Romanian. It sounded interesting—a bit like Portuguese to my (ignorant) ears. I recognized some words from French and Spanish (which is not surprising—it is a Romance language after all).

@rauschma@fosstodon.org It’s a shame I can’t take part.
I’m not on Mastodon in the Fediverse -

Boosts appreciated!@rauschma I’m amazed how evenly this is split.
-
@rauschma spanish, portuguese, and all languages in "other"?, eurochovinism superiority, my friend.
@sergidefe Alas, Mastodon surveys only support 4 choices. It’d be awesome to do a survey with a much longer list of languages!
(Por ejemplo, estoy seguro de que mucha gente habla castellano en el Fediverso.)

Boosts appreciated!@rauschma I'm equally fluent in German (native language) and English (having lived in the US most of my life).
-
@rauschma What if we grew up bilingual?
@thepurpleoctopus You may not be able to see the edit I made a few hours ago: “If you have more than one native language then check the one that you speak better and/or the one that is listed below.”
-
@rauschma No #spanish in the #fediverse? Maybe you're overstating central European languages...
@marioostolaza Just a random selection forced by Mastodon only supporting a maximum of four options. It’d be interesting to do a proper survey with many more languages! ¡Parece que hay una gran comunidad hispanohablante aquí!

@rauschma Other: Bangla
@farah Nice! I recently came across that language when reading about Mamdani’s campaign in New York City: There seems to be a sizable Bengali community there.
