    Three natural languages. In programming, I limit them to 3 as well. I do not consider HTML a language, so most I did was ASP.NET with Javascript and some SQL. Or WinForms with some VBScript support for custom macro's.. and SQL.

        Spoken or written language, English on daily basis. I know a little German (he is about 5 ft tall) ("Top Secret" with Val Kilmer) :) Programming languages, C and (learning C++ and Rust) Programming languages from past frequently used but currently not using them, Fortran, Cobol,

                Depends. Mostly between 2 and 5 :-) Dutch, English, French, Spanish (once in a while), Japanese (martial arts). Today I had to find translation for German :-)

                  C#, VB (kill it with fire), JS (also kill it with fire), TS (oh look, something terrible with types added on top), PowerShell, the occasional dab of Pyhton. If someone could hurry along and mature WASM, that would be nice.

                        I suspect that the OP, Slow Eddie, really posted this question to see how many would interpret it as "natural", human languages, how many would consider programming languages, and how many would not be sure what was the intention behind the question. He sure got a fascinating mix of answers!

                            Daily Basis - 5 (English, PHP, JS, HTML5/CSS, SQL) Bumping that out to a week adds C# & VB.net.

                              Two natural languages on a daily basis, but only one computer language, C++. I hold two masters degrees, one in computer science and the other (bifag) in language psychology. So let me say this. From my viewpoint, learning several languages for real as an adult is exceedingly hard, bordering impossible. Our brains have long since been pruned mostly out of that capability. This means learning a fad computer language owned by a few gurus or even a large corp, that will he gone in a few years, is a ridiculous approach.

                                I was hoping to see some musical languages in the responses. I'm doing uController to Mac stuff these days, so C++, C, Swift, Objective C. But I also torment anyone nearby with novice 5 String Banjo, Piano, and Guitar. Although the notation can be the same, switching instruments kind of feels like language changes.

                                    Just English, with the occasional phrase in Spanish thrown in.

                                        I work in VB.NET mostly, though I am completely fluent in C#. I simply prefer the syntax of VB.NET as I came out of the DBASE world in the 1980s and 1990s. I have begun teaching myself Python and have gotten fairly far with working with it. However, the indentation scheme, which indicates when something is continued or not doesn't make much sense to me and appears to be a large negative for many developers. Nonetheless, learning Python has been fairly straight forward and relatively easy to learn with community support that is provided.

                                          Two at most. Spanish and English at work, though soon I might have to learn Mandarin, more and more water cooler conversations are happening in that language. As for computer languages, I try not to think in more than 2 a day. C/C++ with the occasional use of SQL should've been the end of the road, but now I couple R with SQL a lot for managing data. Python I use just for quick and dirty application development, on other days.
