Male Female

I can speak three languages in total. My first language is Bengali, and I'm very fluent in it. I can express myself well in Bengali. The other two languages I speak are English and Hindi. English is an international language, widely accepted around the world. In our academic curriculum, English is given immense importance due to its value and global acceptance. I've been learning English since childhood and I'm still working on it. I understand and write in English pretty well, but I have a lot to improve in terms of speaking. I'm always trying to polish my speaking skills. The last language I speak is Hindi. I learned Hindi mainly from watching a TV show called 'CID' when I was a child. It was a crime show, and I've always been fascinated by crime stories. My eagerness to understand what was going on and the amount of time I spent watching that show made me quite fluent in listening and speaking Hindi, even though I can't write or read Hindi. So, those are the languages I speak.
