Natlangs in which I really specialize are mainly Latinate, as Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, and Catalan. I only have scratched the surface of Romanian and Classical Latin. I have much experience with Japanese, and I lived in Japan for some time. I have briefly perused other Asiatic languages. I bravely briefly ventured a few times into African ones. I have much interest in indigenous languages of the Americas, the Pacific, and Australia, and about these languages, I collect research documents, which I verily treasure. I can pronounce words written in Russian, Greek, and Hebrew, even if I do not know the meanings. I know crumbs of several other European languages.
Conlangs that I have experienced much include Esperanto, Lojban, Interlingua, Volapük, Elefen, Toki Pona, and Klingon. By the end of 2020, being somewhat exhausted by my linguistic expeditions, I tend more to Esperanto and Toki Pona—green and yellow—the forest and the sunshine.
