At least you speak the most important language in the world. Depending on where you’re from in Europe you’ll very likely speak a minimum of 2-3 languages. Where my parents came from most of the people spoke an average of 4 languages - because of my Dad serving in the Russian army during WW2 and because of he and my Mom moving around after the war they spoke 5 languages. When they moved to Israel they learned Hebrew right away and when I was born I automatically learned Hebrew, Russian, Yiddish, Polish, and German and they sent me to French schools because they wanted me to get the best possible education and I became a francophone but I also learned 6 dialects of Arabic to the point where I can speak to and adjust my accent and pronunciation to converse with a Lebanese, a Syrian, a Palestinian, an Egyptian, an Iraqi or a Moroccan. I also speak the Classical Arabic dialect of Saudi Arabia perfectly. When we left Israel we moved in Thessaloniki, Greece so I speak Greek perfectly and I also learned Turkish and when we moved here to Canada I learned two African languages, Swahili and Lingala. No bragging intended!
