Oh, my brother is much better at learning languages but I am far better at guessing what a word in a language he doesn't speak means. I have an ear for stuff like that.
Ha! I hate it when languages run into one another. <3
It is the plural of book in my icon! Hurrah! I saw a sassy little mural of that Rodchenko poster in Dublin, so geeked out when I read about it. My Russian will definitely be put to the test in a few weeks' time, so we'll see if I can remember how to ask for a hotel. ^-^
With Japanese, I can remember a fair bit of it, but I guess just knowing a few phrases and the correct way to get a waiter's attention by my tone doesn't really give me language skills! Heehee.
Italian is just one language I have never got around to formally studying. Agh!
And I've just read your post and I'm going to geek out over there right now...
