Let's see... I must have a flair for languages:

I'm perfectly fluent in Spanish (the Caribbean/Venezuelan dialect, I have a hard time understanding the Mexican dialect). On occasion, my mind doesn't get quite into gear and I'll throw out some grammatical barbarisms in Spanish, because I'm thinking in English.

Being Spanish is a Romance language, French, Italian and Portuguese are linguistically similar, so I have no problem understanding them, though I don't speak 'em very well.

I can understand German and can transliterate Russian and Greek.
