NWR:Nationalities

I'm pure jewish hungarian, first generation, I speak it fluently since my mom was eight months pregnant with me when they came over here..I also speak russian, since they had to learn it in their area of europe under communism.....

Polish, Russian, Lithuanian..

As well as being Jewish, which is not a nationality, but definitely part of my culture..

I'm truely in awe of anyone who can speak more than one language fluently! Unfortuantly, when my great grandparents came over from italy it was at that time when speaking italian would have likely stopped them from gettting jobs, etc. :( I wish I could speak it though!

Thanks for the compliment, I actually speak five languages....and I looove languages, but I'm not doing anything professionally with them...I can speak hungarian and russian fluently...I can speak french ok, not the best but I do understand it better than I speak it, and I can read and write hebrew, but speak it brokenly and understand it well.
I definitely want to encourage my kids in the future to speak another language, I love the idea of it, I think its great!

Born and raised in America

My mother is 100% Italian My father, however, is Chinese, Japanese, Korean, British, and a little Irish

me: chinese and filipino
FH: chinese

today? or in general? I have so many shows DVR'ed I cant keep up today I have been on the phone with work most of the time

I am Italian, German
FH is Italian, Irish

I'm 50% Irish and the rest is a mix of english and french

He is 50% Italian, 25% German and a mix of some other stuff Scottish and Irish I think.

Me: 100% Filipino (came here when I was 15)
FH: 100% Filipino (came here when he was 3)

100% Italian so is FI

Both FH parents and mine were born in Italy (my parents in Benevento and Naples FH in Sicily) We both of course speak Italian (I think in Italian LOL) which comes in handy when we're talking about vendors in front of them!
