English is my native language. I have a smattering of Malay from early childhood (my mother’s first language), and have limited proficiency in ASL, German, Spanish, Italian, Irish, French, and Finnish (my proudest language moment was purchasing an apple from an old farmer in Helsinki who spoke no English). I also know a tiny amount of Japanese.
I’m contemplating whether to work on my existing proficiency or add a con-lang to the mix like Esperanto or Belter Creole.
