We spoke French at home and I didn't know any English until I went to school. My mother was French and met my father when he visited France as a student on a teaching placement.

I learned French before I learned Spanish.

I unfortunately don't speak French, but my wife is now fluent in English, which really reflects rather badly on me.

I grew up in France, my first language was French, and I tend to gravitate towards French cooking.

The English was really my mother, it was never me. Being the daughter of my father, I always felt very French.

French was my first language.

My wife and I have spent most of our lives in France, and we are both pretty well bilingual, my wife more purely than I, since as a little girl she went to school in French Switzerland.

I grew up speaking Spanish and English. My mother can speak Spanish, English, French and Italian, and she's pretty good at faking Portuguese. I wish that I spoke more languages than I do.
