Loads. So what I can remember in descending order of how much I can speak (and my french is shite):

Eng.
French
Turkish
Russian
Spanish (phrases territory now entered)
Greek (3-4 months of my life, little remains)
Italian
German
Dutch/Flemish? Something like dank you or dank ye? Having that.
Swedish/scandi - tack
Portuguese
Mandarin (general knowledge init, but can't find the Japanese word in my head, somethink like Iranu!?)
Welsh (if everyone else is, I will)
Kurdish (spasi I think, bit like the russian. Travelled through for a few flea bitten weeks.)
Forgotten a few (Sinhala? Sorry gone. Czech? Slovak? Will have known them but gone)

Tells you I've not travelled much outside Europe I guess, and not much eastern europe.
