just for the record...

as of today I have been exposed to 35 languages in one way or another: 21 modern languages, and 14 extinct or older forms of existing languages. One is obvious. Care to take a guess what the other ones are?

edit: I've had to come back and change this number three times now. I keep thinking of other languages.

These are all languages in which I either know and understand at least one word or phrase, whether written or spoken. Languages that I would recognize when written but that I would not understand (such as Cherokee) I have not included.

Neither have I included languages created for fiction (Klingon), computer languages (Basic) or languages that are otherwise artificial (Esperanto).
