I am most familiar with the Gujarati language.
Narendra ModiI wanted a name I could shape the music towards. I was going to Miami quite a lot at the time, speaking a lot of Spanish with my friends from Cuba – ‚Lana Del Rey‘ reminded us of the glamour of the seaside. It sounded gorgeous coming off the tip of the tongue.
Lana Del ReyI think I should learn French and be a better cook – basic, really good life stuff.
Angelina JolieI was going to Miami quite a lot at the time, speaking a lot of Spanish with my friends from Cuba – Lana Del Rey reminded us of the glamour of the seaside. It sounded gorgeous coming off the tip of the tongue.
Lana Del ReySpeaking English is like tongue-twist for me. I can speak each word perfect, but then you have to string them together like, ‚Blah, blah, blah.‘ That’s when I get crazy.
Jackie ChanSometimes I don’t use the words ‚will‘ and ‚want‘ in the right way. The German word ‚will‘ is the English word ‚want,‘ so that’s a little bit of the problem.
Jurgen KloppI don’t speak Spanish, I speak a little of Italian but no Spanish.
Karl LagerfeldFrench is the language that turns dirt into romance.
Stephen KingIn oratory the will must predominate.
David HareEvery time I have to look up a word in the dictionary, I’m delighted.
Vivienne WestwoodI’m all self-taught. I never had a teacher. Even for English, and French, and German, I hardly went to school.
Karl LagerfeldObviously this song is an achievement for me in my career, but what makes me really feel good is to make Latinos feel proud. To provoke that pride that a pop figure and someone so big in music globally like Drake would sing with me completely in Spanish and create this hit ‚MIA.‘ That’s the best part of it.
Bad BunnyThough I do manage to mumble around in about seven or eight languages, English remains the most beautiful of languages. It will do anything.
Maya AngelouI went by myself to Hollywood, I spoke no English, every day I had to go to school.
Jackie ChanI admire people who dare to take the language, English, and understand it and understand the melody.
Maya AngelouAll the kids are learning different languages. I asked them what languages they wanted to learn, and Shi is learning Khmai, which is a Cambodian language; Pax is focusing on Vietnamese, Mad has taken to German and Russian, Z is speaking French, Vivienne really wanted to learn Arabic, and Knox is learning sign language.
Angelina JolieI never had to learn English, French and German because I was brought up as all three languages. I had a private French teacher before I even went to school. That helped a lot.
Karl LagerfeldWhen you make as many speeches and you talk as much as I do and you get away from the text, it’s always a possibility to get a few words tangled here and there.
Dan QuayleIt is too late to be studying Hebrew; it is more important to understand even the slang of today.
