I ticked other for "What languages do you speak/are you able to read/have you learned?" because I can speak [barely] passable Tamil. Except it has a lot of Telegu mixed in as well. English became my first language from when I was about 5/6 years old Because my parents encouraged me to speak English at home to the extent that I actually stopped speaking my mother-tongue despite the fact that my Mum still converses in that to me as it is her first language.
