Good morning, or perhaps good evening to you all. I got a random question for you. What language or languages does your MC speak? You can choose any or all steps for this.
In step 1, Kathryne only speaks German and Kalaallisut (primary language in Greenland) and only knows a few words in English. By step 2 she speaks broken English and is fluent by step 3. Bacon only knows English and a couple German words he learned from KitKat.
THIS IS SUCH A FUN QUESTION !!!
In step 1, Kojo speaks English, Korean, and a bit of Mexican Spanish. By step 2, he has added Greek, Mandarin/Chinese, and German! In step 3 he learns Tagalog, French and Italian. He still knows how to speak and read Mexican Spanish, but sometimes he forgets words or his brain just shortcuts when writing 💔💔💔 in step 4 he doesn't learn any new languages 😞
Yu-ming speaks Chinese and English in step 1, but even after already living in the states for 3 years and learning English before moving, she still sometimes forgets simple words like 'microwave' or 'waterbottle' (happens to me but w/ dutch 😞 sigh being bilingual is a blessing and a curse) In step 2 she speaks English better, and has started to learn German for Tammy. In step 3 and 4 it stays like that. Unlike Kojo, Yuming has no desire to learn every language in the world.
(Perhaps they both know Dutch too cuz yeah, but probs not.)
Jude speaks English, Japanese, Spanish, German and Chinese a little!! he's good at learning languages and likes it very much so he spends his free time with it often, he is most fluent in Japanese since he used to live there and worst at Chinese but he wants to learn it for Qiu so he tries still
Fio just speaks English fluently but she speaks Italian at A2 level and knows a few German words too (for Tamarack ofc). She doesn't have a separate want to learn new languages and she learns Italian just because she's Italian so she feels like she has to know it (even though she never lived or went there) but gives up a little quickly 😔
In step 1 Leonard only spoke English and a few words in Russian (he was still studying)
By stage 2 Leonard is already fluent in Russian and generally speaks more in that language than in English, as well as knowing a little German and Chinese through Tamarack and Qiu
In future steps he doesn't change much in languages other than learning German and Chinese better.
Mari would know English and French fluently, but force herself to learn Hindi because she feels guilty abt not knowing her home language despite being shit at it 😞
Kel would be both fluent in Chinese and English, though Chinese would be his home language
Elias would know English, but be able to write German before being fully fluent in step 3
In step 1, Gin mainly speaks english but he's trying to learn japanese, german and mandarin. Since he's a quick learner and likes learning new things, he gets the hang of them pretty easily, already speaking japanese fluently by step 2, german and mandarin not so much, since he got bored of them. In step 3 he already knows english, japanese, german and mandarin, starting to learn some others like, spanish, french and russian.
Oh! That's such a Fun question!! MianMian is fluent in Mandarin(her home language); English and some words in Turkish!! by Step 1 since her old school.
In Step 2; she starts to learn some German(for my girl Tamarack🩷) and Russian; here, she's already fluent in Turkish too.
In Step 3 she becomes fluent in German and Russian, then she begins to learn Korean and starts to get interested in Tagalog Filipino too.
In Step 4, she likes to mix words in diferent languages to play with her friends (usually Korean+Filipino Tagalog+Mandarin); she likes to study diferent kinds of languages, but doesn't learn more in this step.
HECK UEAAAHHH !!! I LOVE THIS QUESTION
Okay so Runie ORIGINALLY came from the Philippines but moved to the US when he was almost a year old.
He’s obviously fluent in both Tagalog and English, but also in other dialects of the Philippines as well like Cebuano, Ilocano, and Waray (considering his family came from the three different islands there. Yes they are a BIG family.)
He learns German from Tammy, and speaks only a bit of Spanish, Chinese, and Swahili because hes been friends with Sonia, Qinru, and Damian for a long time :3
Though the language that hes put the most passion in learning is sign language. Its mostly because he wanted to talk to Damian whenever hes non-verbal and also because he thinks its a challenge to learn which he loves!
This question awesome! Rafaic in Step 1 mostly speaks English and Swedish, but in Step 2 she knows conversational Arabic (Interest in Moroccan heritage) and is steadily learning German (we all know why). By Step 3 I imagine due to pure interest she learns many languages like Spanish and Irish Gaelic (which are my two familial tongues!) as well as Telugu, Faroese and Mandarin. I imagine by the end of Step 3 and into a potential Step 4, she tries to pick up Portuguese and Romanian.
Throughout her entire lifespan, however, she exclusively swears in Latin :>
Sylvan is swedish american but she doesn't know a lick of swedish (mainly because she was born and raised in a place where everyone speaks mainly english) and she's too busy focusing on becoming a fashion designer to actually learn other languages, plus it's already hard for her to understand school subjects so you would think learning a new language is 100x harder for her
Just like Sylvan, Hiro is also born and raised in a place where everyone mainly speaks english so he only knew english in step 1, also I would've liked to think that he's not really interested in learning a language unless he's really interested in it. Though in step 2 he learned german for Tammy (another reasson is that he's really curious on what Tammy says in german sometimes)
