German is a bitch to learn. Well for me, my family speaks, but english was my first language, so I got screwed.

ANYWAYS: Funny thing about German. In English you would say for example "The power button" (in referance to a remote for the tv or whatever). In German roughly translated "The button that you push to make the TV turn on." LONG explinations like that.

well for sheer comunication value i gotta give it up to english... cause its pretty much what Esperanto set out to be but failed horribly at (being an international language)

As for hearing:
Spanish, Italian, Polish (hearing the language of the mother country is just soothing... much like the new DQ brownie batter blizzard)

Code:
<?php

$favlang = Array ();
$favlang[0] = "PHP";
$favlang[1] = "Perl";
$favlang[2] = "Javascript";
$favlang[3] = "C";
$favlang[4] = "C++";

echo respond($favlang);

function respond($favlang){
	$string = "";
	$nlang = count($favlang);
	for ($i = 0; $i<$nlang; $i++){

		if (($i+1) == $nlang){
			$string .= " and ";
		} else {
			$string .= ", ";
		}
		$string .= "$favlang[$i]";
	}
	$string .= ".";
	$string = substr($string, 2);
	$string = "I prefer " . $string;
	return $string;
}
?>

^^Your code is pretty, but obnoxiously long.

Also, define your functions before you call them, geez.

Down with verbosity!

Ich möchte Deutsch spreche aber Ich wolle mögen Rußisch, Finnisch, Japanisch und Polnisch lernen. Oh yah... I speak English too, but sometimes it gets annoying.

Computer-wise: I know C++, a little Assembler, Turbo Pascal and Javascript
I'd like to learn: PHP, Perl, Assember fully...

It doesn't work, either... you cant .= a string that hasn't been initialized.

At least not as of PHP5.

Wacky. All I had to do was add $string = ""; to the beginning of the function.

Looks like PHP is gonna become a real language after all.

DAMN YOU, PASCAL!

Oh, and while we're at it, I love the sound of French, Polish, Japanese, and Mandarin.

I heard it's the easist language to learn, and only required 50% brain power. (Those arn't my words). I still want to learn it.

I wanna learn Japanese too, and probably polish up on my French.
