Yup.
My girls had to learn it to perform Polish dance. I learned it by hearing it all the time. (this is their 5th year. Mil started when she was 18 months old!)

I can also sing three songs in Slovak. I have no clue what they are about and so far no one has translated them for us.
Goose dance, Poppyseed dance and the Bacon song.

I can sing one song in Japanese, end theme for “The Cat Returns”. I actually love it and sing it all the time.

I can understand a lot of French from watching French, subtitled movies that came across Lake Erie from Canada to Cleveland. We got channel 10 from London, ON. However I can’t speak or read it.

And of course, some liturgical Latin.

Baba refused to teach any of her 12 children Polish. They were American and should speak English. They could talk about them as well! I’ve considered sending the girls to Polish school at our local Polish church but it’s the same night as Polish dance. It’s a pity.
