As he was leaving we shook hands and I said, "My brother is never gonna believe me" in english and he realized I was also a polyglot and he goes, and this is a direct quote, "you little rascal!" and "bis spater!" and as he's leaving out the door I go; "pas si je te vois an premier" and he laughed out loud as the door closed.

But I always tell people that once you speak one of the Latin languages, it is easy to learn and speak all Latin-derived languages. Same root, and similar wording. The only thing that changes is the pronunciation. I find it more meritable when you know how to speak Russian, Chinese, Slavic languages, etc, when your native tongue is Spanish for example since they have a completely different grammatical structure.

Fun fact- all of the Jonas Brothers are somewhat conversational in ASL. Their mother is an ASL teacher. There are videos of the Jonas Brothers (sorta…) conversing with one another in ASL onstage. Having said that, the majority of hearing ASL teachers don’t have as good of a grasp on ASL as they think they do. There’s so much to deaf culture. So, it’s best to have a deaf ASL teacher.

I concur on Deaf versus hearing ASL instructors. When I was learning ASL, I had both deaf and hearing instructors. The deaf instructors were much better (hearing instructors were good, but Deaf instructors were better). All through the program, we were encouraged to get Deaf instructors whenever possible. ASL is my fifth language, but I use it more than any other language, except for my native English. (And for anyone who's interested, the switch between small "d" deaf and capital "D" deaf is to differentiate a medical condition/disability ("deaf") versus the culture ("Deaf").)

The more languages you speak, the more people you can talk to. It's amazing how people can change attitude if you address them in their native language. If you're young, you learn languages fast & relatively easy. Some people retain that capability later in life. And the more languages you already know, the easier it is to learn another one, especially if it's the same language family. I myself speak 4 languages. I learned them all in school, and with family, friends an neighbours, I spoke them. But why is this so amazing for celebs? Being an actor, you deal with language all the time. Most of them are pretty smart, too. So learning another one, especially if you grow up in an international environment, isn't that hard.

I really like how I can understand most of what those actors actually are saying. Most of them use a pretty easy form of the target language. Sandra Bullock sounds a bit aggressive sometimes... haha (coming from somebody who's German himself ;-) but it's just the way she says some things... other than that it's a very interesting mix of NO accent certain words and very thick accent for others coming from her). Overall I really love her German voice! Keeping in mind, that all celebs not only have a lot of money, but also travel quite a lot and most of them have a good educational background... it's not really suprising that they can actually to a certain degree speak a second (or even third) language. From a non-english europiean perspective many people from a certain educational background speak at least English fluently (or fluent enough...) and a third language (french, italien, spanish, would be the classics... or for other people arabic, russian, etc.). So actually it's mostly english speaking countries where (sadly) too many people just don't learn at least a second language (if they are not raised with more than one).
