Έτσι, αυτό είναι ελληνικά σε σας;
[So, is this Greek to you?]

Ναι, είναι ελληνικό για μένα, αλλά δεν είναι "ελληνικό" για μένα.
However: Graecum est; legitur.
[Yes, it is Greek to me, though it is not "greek" to me.] 
Fun read!

Of course, the end of it all: Αυτά μου φαίνονται αλαμπουρνέζικα.

(Not necessarily in this order)
With National Instruments' LabVIEW thrown in there too.

English and Java.
Obviously I still use English, but I don't really use Java a whole lot anymore. I use Delphi for work.

English and Assembly Language.
I still speak only English and code in C/C++ which is close enough to the hardware for me so far.
Although "beating the system" by saving an instruction or two while achieving the same results in assembly was always rewarding.

Proper English and FORTRAN II.
I have little use for either anymore since both appear to be obsolete in the US.

First spoken: German - still using but speaking more Italian here (southern Switzerland)
First Coding: Assembler - Not using anymore. Now mainly C#.

French and Z80 assembler
later : COBOL, PL1, Pascal, Basic (only some idioms), C, C++, C#, PHP, HTML, W-Language (4GL Windev) and ... English (not fluent)

Swiss German and Standard Pascal (on a PDP 11).
Still Swiss German, improved English and an understanding of French. VB6, VBA (mostly in Excel pricing tools), COBOL, Assembler and basic understanding of other languages (C#, Fortran (not proud of it) etc) without using them myself but I had to read through the code to understand what it was doing.

German, some Dutch, and Pascal.
Still use german, although in the meantime it's got a swiss-german flavor  As for dutch, I rarely use it any more as I've found that most dutch speak much better german or english than I dutch. Anyway, I never formally learned it, and I've been told when I speak it sounds funny because of the local accent and 'slang' that I grew up with.
Pascal, last used it (actually Borland Delphi) some 15 years ago to develop the client side of a client-server application. Since then I've mostly worked in C++, with a short detour to Java.
While I can't help my mother (and father) tongue, Pascal was unusal as a first language at my time: most of my contemporaries started out with Apple-II or C=64 Basic.

English and ICL Pascal followed by BBC BASIC before moving to mainly Fortran, VB, C, C#
Yes its my native language and that of most of my colleagues and friends and No - Pascal is more used as a teaching language than for most production use

Portuguese (born and raised in Portugal)
In school first learned Pascal, later C, COBOL and VB.
First work was in Delphi, loved it and used it until i met C#.
Meanwhile attended University (Night school) where i learned C++ and Java

Brummie English and Algol60. Actually I'd done some programming on whatever language WITCH used when I was at Wolverhampton CAT in '65 but that may not count.

Probably something new here:
My first verbal language was Swiss-German (and it still is). I'm also pretty good at English and use it for pretty much anything related to my developer activities.
The first programming language I really knew was PL/1 on z/OS. That was 2008. Thanks to the Swiss educational system and the company I took my apprenticeship, I could work on Mainframes for two and a half years. I also got to know a little COBOL, C and REXX.
In the second half of this apprenticeship i got to know Java and then C# which I'm using on a daily basis now. Lately though, we're also using a lot of JavaScript.

Malay and a BASIC variant [no idea which]
The Malay was because as a baby we had a Malay Nanny and I spent more time with her than anyone so my first words were Malay. No, I cannot remember a single word of it now.
BASIC is still there, but I try not to use. I do do a bit of VB work, but never by choice.

Spanish and 68000 Assembler and C. My first project was for the Commodore Amiga 1000, using C, Assembler and AmigaBasic. I am not sure which one was my first programming language.
Do not look at the past. It no longer exists. Do not live thinking in the future, it does not exist at this moment. Only exists the present. Live it remembering the past to avoid mistakes and with the promise of the future as motivation.

Italian and Pascal.
I don't use Pascal anymore (currently I use C#, Java and C++ depending on the project), and slowly I'm abandoning Italian language too, since I moved from Italy to the UK.
