French

already
rusting...

When I started to learn German. Which seems to have been the fatal blow. There was a period where I could speak neither French nor German, only weird mixtures of the two as German verbs would combine with French prepositions. Now my German's coming along and the French has just withered. Although when I was in Brussels for a day I did find it coming back a teeny bit.
Funnily enough, when I was learning Finnish I found it really stimulated the memories of French in my mind. To the point that I was taking dictation at one point and wrote an unfamiliar word down using French phonetics instead of Finnish :0P
(At a job interview I had earlier this year I was asked, with some astonishment, just how many languages I speak *grin*)
