This is not an indication of intelligence, just the result of living in a tiny country surrounded by other small countries, all of which have different mother tongues, so it is necessary to speak more than one, and you are exposed to more than one from childhood. English, as well as other languages in addition to the local mother tongue, are taught in schools here as well.

I have lived in Central Europe and Eastern Europe for a decade, and I know plenty of non-college educated people here who speak 2 or 3 languages. Our cleaner, for example, speaks Russian, Polish, and English. Many people who work in shops and kiosks speak English. The prostitutes who mobbed my visiting brother last week when he went into his hotel bar all spoke fluent English, in addition to the two local languages.

So speaking multiple languages in CentralEastern Europe is very normal. It doesn't indicate superior intelligence, or even an unusual degree of discipline. I think Melania is very beautiful, but the woman is a college dropout who is clearly not bright, and the fact that she--a Central European--speaks several languages means nothing. Try again. She does have great hair and a pretty face. Her clothes are nice. But she isn't smart.



You bitter about something?

I speak 2 fluently and can read competently in 1 more. My husband speaks 3 fluently. Our secondaries, after English, do not overlap.

trutttth...I tell people I can sort of speak a language that I really cannot. Sure, I can understand quite a bit. But if i tried to hold a real conversation with a native speaker they would def know that I'm not fluent.

How do you know she isn't lying about this as she lied about her degree in architure. Also, so what? Most Europeans are multi-lingual.

Why are you guys bashing Melania? If anything, I feel sorry for her. She didn't ask for all this. Frankly, we know nothing of her intelligence or lack thereof. Women bashing other women is a very interesting phenomenon. That's why Trump won this in the first place.
