Spoken Languages

My mother tongue is British English. My time in the United States has attuned me to some of the peculiarities in our differences, and I have a tendency to mix British and American spellings and structures.

I speak some French, which I wish to develop further. I am also slowly learning Hebrew and Yiddish.
