Thought I’d make this topic to see if we have any bilingual users here on Fab.

I speak English as well as Swedish (Dad is from there).

"Yep"

In that case...

ASP (the "old" active server pages)

BASIC

C

C++

HTML

JavaScript/JScript

PHP

SGML

SQL

Visual Basic

VBScript

XML

OK...I suppose listing multiple markup languages might be considered cheating but the differences are rather akin to Spanish and Portuguese.
