I got about 12 responces up till now and I hope that the rest of
our comunity will take the time to send me a private email to the
following address:

feanor@**********.uni-bremen.de

telling me how many and which languages they feel comfortable with :)

Sneak Preview: I can tell you this, "nonolingual" people are a minority
on the list if the responces I got this far are in any way indicativ.

You mean there is a shortage of nine-language speaking people? Or zero
language speaking people? :-)

nonolingual (adj.) -- referring to that group of people who commonly express
themselves only through repeated, monosyllabic words of negativity,
(such as "no" or the colloqual "sike" [sic] or
"not"), but offering
no further explanation. In the past, alt.config cabal professor
emeritus Tim Pierce has been perhaps the greatest living example
of this phenomenon. See also: metoolingual, hearhearlingual (often
misspelled as "hereherelingual"), newbie.
