| Wow! Alan International now has 300 registered users, and I can see that they are all over the world. I would love to know how many of her fans (here) speak/understand Mandarin, Japanese, both or neither. I don't know if this would make a good poll or not, but I am interested to see how many people love alan and don't understand what she is saying.
Unfortunately I only speak and understand English, but I love J-Pop and C-Pop!

| You don't know how much I envy people that can speak more than one language, and can pick up others! |

| I can speak Chinese (Mandarin), French, I'm learning English and Spanish at school (but don't trust french school teaching other languages... haha) and I'm learning a bit Japanese. I wish I start Korean one day, and Dutch too (and probably not, but also Danish, lol). I'm fascinated by Asian languages. And languages are something I love learning, and I'm also quite good at it. |

| I'm Chinese and can speak fluent English and Teochew (One of the many Chinese dialects).
I can speak and understand some Mandarin. I'm currently learning it right now. Its probably going to take me a while for me to be fluent in it. I'm kinda regretting it for not learning it when I was young.
I can understand a little Khmer just don't expect me to speak it.
I can speak and understand a little Cantonese
And I just know a few Japanese words here and there

| I speak Norwegian, English and some German. Currently, I'm studying Japanese, and I can understand simple words and sentences. I am working hard to learn more everyday!
I've been a fan of Japanese music for years though, even when I couldn't understand a single word they were saying. I believe that good music can transcend language barriers, if you're open minded. |
