I use Rosetta Stone to help me learn Portuguese, currently.
The army taught me Russian. I learned Spanish in high school and working at restaurants. I know enough Arabic and Mandarin... and I'm getting Portuguese down.
And I speak pig latin.

Ooh, I bet there's a good story here. Involving hot Russian spy-chicks, poison pellets, fake passports, fast cars, long-range guns with silencers, and spotlights and helicopters.
