Not currently trying, but the following languages I want to learn eventually: Spanish, Italian, French, Arabic and Hindi.

I do understand conversational Spanish and Italian, but I need to relearn them.
Thanks for this!

I want to learn Russian too, very beautiful language. I'm learning Swedish at the moment, mostly by listening Disney songs in Swedish. Maybe I'll try Polish or German too.

And English is not my first language

I learned some Japanese a couple of years ago. I’ve not kept it up but have meaning to get back to learning it again.

I understand more than I can speak of French and Spanish. I want to become bilingual in Spanish. I know a bit of German as well.
Thanks for this!

I had 5 years of Spanish in high school/ college. Could read but not converse well.

I went to Italy for 6 weeks & came home knowing almost as much Italian as I did Spanish.

The thing that I found personally is that I can't get the conversational part unless I am immersed in the language & forced to speak it in order to communicate so it becomes fluent.

English is my second language. I took German and French at school but I don't remember anything (I didn't pay attention and didn't study properly. I regret that now.
I'd like to improve my Russian.
