English and French fluently. English is my mother tongue. French I learned in an immersion program in primary school. I didn't study french at all in highschool or postsecondary, and always hated it during primary because my parents put me in immersion to "challenge" me. I started working for the Canadian federal government after uni, and they have pretty robust training programs for getting to full french fluency from any starting skill level. Plus, there's a bit of a glass ceiling for monolingual public servants in the federal government.

Recently started dating a Chinese girl and so I'm trying to teach myself a bit of Chinese. It's not as hard as I expected it to be, but it is very hard. In many ways it's the opposite experience of learning French relative to English. Learning French, the vocabulary is pretty easy and the grammar is very hard. Learning Chinese, the grammar is dead easy but the vocabulary is really hard.
