How many languages does Queen Elizabeth 1 speak?

Answer 1

Elizabeth's ability to grasp and retain exotic languages was phenomenal. It is said that by age 11 Elizabeth was able to speak six languages fluently: Latin, Greek, French, Italian, Spanish and English. When ambassadors and statesmen called upon the royal family, Elizabeth brilliantly addressed them in their native tongues. Elizabeth I was fluent in French, Spanish, Italian, Latin, German and Greek, and even knew some Welsh and Portugese
